Android 13, powered by Google, comes with features that help in using a single device for work and play. Google said Android 13’s redesigned “work profiles” built on the previous year’s enhancements to separate an employee’s personal data from work data and provide a better user experience, were in line with IT department’s admin policies.
Google’s Android 13 asks employees if an app should be opened in their personal profile or work profile. Google gives an example where corporate videos are separated from the YouTube watchlist to avoid any confusion or privacy breach. Google also provides the benefit of having two photo galleries on their devices - one each for personal and professional use - for a hassle-free and organized sharing experience.
