#workprofile — Public Fediverse posts

@lawnchairapp
ich denke ich spreche für viele Nutzer wenn ich sage, bitte programmiert diesen Fehler als Standard Ansicht für den Private Space, man kann Apps auf den homescreen ziehen und man muss nicht immer bis ans ende der App-Liste scrollen.
das muss doch gehen ????

I think I speak for many users when I say, please program this error as the default view for the private space, you can drag apps to the home screen and you don’t always have to scroll to the end of the app list.
That has to go ????

Another #HowTo, this time how to use #Signal on #Android without giving it broad media permissions.

Signal does not use the 2 possible secure methods of accessint photos that Android offers, and clones #Whatsapp in that regard.

By insisting on needing access to read all your images, while being a complex app connected to the internet, and the only official versions containing proprietary #Google #blobs.

Other messengers like #SimpleX, #Element, #ElementX, #Fluffychat, #Conversations, #Threema and more save themselves the effort and just use the builtin options, improving security by design and unnecessary code bloat.

So, how can I use Signal without trusting it with all my images?

1. Use the "Share" Portal.

That is the obvious one, and a very nice feature on Android. It allows to share any media to an application and giving it access to only that.

This also works across the #WorkProfile or #PrivateSpace and can be used by Apps like #SaveTo to transfer files.

The workflow is often slower than just using the media chooser portal, but it works. It is what I use since years.

2. Android hacks

But this is not all. Setting a profile picture or group profile picture does not work through the share portal. So we use a Feature specific to Androids Sandbox:

- All apps can save files to various default directories like Pictures, Movies, Music, Downloads, Documents; without having read access to it.
- And all apps can access files they themself saved there.

Combining these two features, you can send a picture to Signal and use the "Save locally" button to save it from within the app.

The result is that this picture will be visible in Signals internal gallery and can be selected for profile and group pictures.

Obvious downsides are
- it is a stupid workflow
- it duplicates images that you need to delete manually afterwards
- pictures might be compressed twice, losing quality

But for this very limited purpose, it is kinda fine.

Still, @signalapp please solve this very old issue!

C: The #WorkProfile. This is a pretty old feature, intended to grant your employer control over a nested user profile, but giving you the control to turn it on or off.

When using it alone you need a companion app like #Shelter or #Island, and due to the design this app has full potential control over that profile (so it should be really trusted!).

Work profiles take up a lot of space, but integrate the best into the system (easily accessible, icons can be placed on the home screen).

O Mamulu dlaczego ja tego wcześniej nie spróbowałem?!
A i jeszcze dlaczego są tylko dwa profile, znalazłbym zastosowanie dla co najmniej jeszcze jednego. :D

No ale wywalenie gkonta na śmieci wraz z zarejestrowanymi tam aplikacjami na bok, z możliwością ich wyłączenia hurtem jest genialne w swojej prostocie. Nie miałem pojęcia jak mi tego brakowało! xD

Czy można to instalować kiedykolwiek czy raczej powinna to być pierwsza rzecz na słuchawce?

#GrapheneOS on #Android14 works pretty good so far. They even restored the #workprofile behaviour for pausing. Most #UI improvements made it into the os aswell. And this is even the first #alpha built. Looking forward to what comes next.

#Android's #multipleuserprofiles are such a powerful feature. This way, i can have my main profile, with everything reliant on #googleplayservices on my main's #workprofile, a dummy profile that looks real, and a #secure profile with only #grapheneos' default apps and ehnanced #security settings. Overall, it makes it possible to seperate everything. Definitely worth checking out!

The Android work profile solution is something I really like. Enough separation between my own and company data, with the ability to switch off the entire profile with a single click in order to disconnect mentally. That's the perfect compromise for me between carrying around two separate devices and giving my company some control over the content on my personal device.
