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! 🙌
You realize even if its isolated that if anything ever goes Wrong at work, they have every right to take your phone yeah?
I’m sure you have a law to point, right? Because it sure sounds made up.
There is no law, because its not illegal to do. Or maybe I’m wrong and their is a law specifically saying its okay to do this.
Bottom line? Any time work has told me to get a work related app, or whenever it was hinted at, you can bet your ass that they’ll have some you sign something as well.
I’ve also heard plenty of stories that this has happened. Don’t learn the hard way by installing work related apps on your personal phone.
Not to mention the few times I’ve told work that I simply will not install a work related app, and have gotten work phones.
There is no law, because its not illegal to do. Or maybe I’m wrong and their is a law specifically saying its okay to do this.
They have the right to take your property but that law isn’t written anywhere? I agree you’re wrong, but not on what you think
Yes, that is how contracts work, similar to how Terms and Conditions generally allow websites to take any data they’d like from you, and sign away rights like class action law suits. Contracts can also say that if you have work property on your phone, they have every right to take your phone.
You clearly have never worked somewhere where said company requires you to have a work app, and it shows.
