Add support for Android 15's private space

Open TFackler opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

The new private space introduced in Android 15 Beta 2 allows users to lock some apps and files behind a secondary google account or authentication method. Allowing users to hide apps or add a second layer of security to their phones.

While we want to explore supporting this, we do not have a clear design in mind yet on how to incorporate this fittingly into Niagara Launcher.

Feel free to add your thoughts and ideas.

Feature Request Procedure

You could put it at the bottom of the launcher. You'd need authentication to open that section of the bottom. (I'm envisioning a standalone item that looks like an app labeled private space and when you tap it and authenticate, it expands into a secondary list)

Or perhaps a pop up folder at the buttom?

Importantly, there should be multiple options when it comes to hiding the private space. Perhaps the ability to rename private space as a popup folder in the app list? Or the ability to hid it as a hidden app and then you find it through the search bar? Or the ability to make it the Niagara button?

Possibilities.
