Hi there. I need to use my phone for work, but want to isolate anything that is work related. What's the recommended way of doing so these days? Found the Foss app called Shelter, but found it to be a bit buggy and seems to have been a while since previous update. Let me know about any tips or recommendations regarding this! 🙌
