  • I don’t believe it requires a Google account.

    I just used it on grapheneos, it does recommend you use a separate Google account for the private space, but I don’t have Google account on the phone, I was able to create a private space without any issue.

    This feels very much like a second profile, like a workspace. So now you can have three profiles on your main phone login. Normal, private, work.

    That’s nice. I would have liked it if the lock button wasn’t there, better to not reveal it at all… Upon checking the settings, there is a hide option. So yeah this is great

    It really is the local bar, you can just walk up and talk to anybody. That is absolutely critical. It’s open discovery, it’s effortless communication of status.
