Hello folks!
So I joined a new company and am debating if I want to carry two phones around- work and personal.
However I am concerned what the org can see/access on the phone (Samsung Galaxy)
In order to access my email/calendar I need to setup an Android Work profile. Some basic searches online indicated that the organization can only see/access/control things on the work profile and nothing beyond.
Looking at said work profile I only see installed basic apps like gmail, calendar, contacts. No other management or control apps like Workspace One or a work specific VPN are being forced. I have worked at other organizations that required those, and I instantly opted for dedicated Work phone- as those give up a TON of control to the org no questions asked.
Very aware both Samsung and anything Google are privacy concerns in general, I do what I can on this device to limit it.
My question here is mostly privacy for what my org can see/access beyond the android work profile. The only overlap in apps I can see is for texting- the work profile seems to share the same SMS app as primary profile.
AKA I worked in IT, I know how creepy some of us can be LOL- if they are able to log texts, calls, non-work email...ect I would like to know if possible.
Any thoughts or information the community can share?
Thanks!
Edit: I should note I read the Google articles specificly on this and they are pretty clear. Just not sure how much I can trust them...
