    Alternative with the same option is “island”

    Shelter is FOSS, and I think is just a better app at this point.

    No disrespect to Island, it works and it's free, but I do think Shelter is preferable.

    I've been using insular which is basically the foss version of island

    Your phone has a feature called Work Profile that can be used to isolate your personal and work apps from each other. Normally you need to sign in to a company-specified app like Microsoft Company Portal to activate Work Profile, but Shelter is a simple, open-source app that will do it instead.

    Think of as virtualized/segmented user space. You can install apps within in, and they are ONLY allowed access to the data within the work profile.

    With Shelter you can set apps to automatically freeze as well, so that when they aren't in use, they can't do anything else.

    You're welcome, I don't usually write comments, recently I'm having this assumption of "everyone knows this already.." but here we are... 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Imposter syndrome is kicking in hard as you can see
