I mean, I have it installed, but I have it installed in a “sandbox” (Co-opting androids work profile feature) I use Insular

But looking now, it seems it hasn’t been updated in a year so I might have to look for an alternative soon if it has issues when I upgrade to Android 16 lol

Look into Shelter, it works on latest Android though it’s been several months since the last update.

What is the point of these apps besides duplicating the app space? Does it actually provide any additional sandboxing that the android OS doesn’t do already?
