[feature request] support native android works profiles

Open codeInTheShell opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

One of the things that I feel is missing, is the inclusion of work profiles. I know that many applications such as rethinkDNS, Blokada, Adaway and so on do not include such a feature. Personally i tend to install a few big brother apps in Shelter (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.typeblog.shelter/) to have them separated from my personal data. I can see how it might be debatable to support such a feature since anti-tracking rules and such should theoretically keep apps from sending out "sensitive" information. A few missed or forgotten rules is all it takes to undermines the users privacy, which i think is enough reason to at least consider this as feature. Running two instances seems like a bad idea, not only because it's wasteful in terms of battery usage, but it is also redundant in regards to configuration and management.

I've never worked with work profiles before. Do you have a place for me to start, or any actual ideas what I'd need to implement?
