I use the apps my friends use but it gets tiring to keep up with so many.

    And if you have two phone numbers which you want to use for WhatsApp then you need to clone the damn app because they can’t even make such basic functionality

      Shelter is a nice FOSS app.

      Samsungs also have Secure Folder…

        Samsung actually allows app cloning for multiple profiles without using secure folder.

        I’m not sure if it’s a list of supported apps or any as I don’t use the feature

          It’s called “dual messenger” if anyone is curious. Works well for using both my US & international numbers.

          Oh yeah, you can do that too. I just never have it for apps I want to clone.

          I have a newer Redmi Phone and I can install an app at least twice. There’s the ‘second space’ as well which is like having a cordoned off user. I use a different fingerprint or PIN and it takes me there.
