      Pull down your notification bar twice. In other words expand it all the way. There is a small person Inside of a circle icon. That is how you can select the other profile. It’s super fast and easy.

      Then when you are done inside the profile. Hold the power button and select “Lock Out” and this will completely close down the second profile and put you back in the Main profile with the other completely shut down.

      Downside is you wont get notifications in one area or the other from the opposing profile when it’s not in use.

      An alternative that is pretty secure too instead of profiles is to do the same thing in Private Space. This is found in the settings under the Security tab. This WILL get notifications to your main profile and when you shut down Private Space all apps stop completely including Play Services. But it’s not as isolated as profiles

        Wow, this is impressive. I had heard about profiles but never got into the detail and never really understood the benefit. So, a cool way of using this it to have a FOSS only space under the main admin profile and the build up a second “big brother” profile where I stack some annoying apps that in a way or another I’m forced to use like banking app and what’s app. When the “big brother” profile is shut down, nobody tracks you. Would that be correct? If this is true I’m here asking myself why on earth people are not harnessing this more.
