I have company managed apps on my device. Teams, Outlook and Authenticator. Any idea if there might be any friction there with Graphene? It's really the only thing from holding me back and I can't really justify experimenting if it's going to break things

That's your first problem. If your company want to force you to use specific apps on a phone they should just buy you a phone for that

Can't really be helped. I was getting a $50/mth stipend for it for about 3 years but then they turned that off.

Oh, they turned that off? Okay, where in the policy does it say that you're required to use your own device? No stipend no teams. No stipend no outlook. No stipend no authenticator. I'm not giving them a single millimeter.

This, all day long. If you need to access teams on the go (because you choose to) there is a web interface for that. Same for outlook. There are plenty 2FA options so you probably already have something that can provide 2FA without requiring you to install a microslop app to your phone. I will not accept any third party management of my device.

Yah, the company I work for has been pushing Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) the last few months. Nope and nope.

[–] possumparty@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 days ago

Oh hell no lmaoooo absolutely tf not. I refuse to outsource the costs of their business to my own wallet.

Should work, although haven't tried Teams or Outlook, but I would recommend putting it on a different profile, you can make multiple users, then enable the google play store on there. Leave that as you work profile or google profile. Helps keep things separated.

YUCKY! Sorry can't say. I don't even allow Microsoft on my network.
