Just installed GOS on my phone, really like it. I want to know how GOS users setup their profiles to learn from them. So far, i found out the followings:

  1. everything in Owner

  2. leave Owner blank. Put everything in another profile names User.

  3. leave Owner blank. Put all Google stuff in user Google. Put all FOSS app in FOSS user. Put all bank stuff under Sensitive user.

  4. use Owner as an app repo. So install Google Play, Acrescent, Fdroid. Install apps from there, but dont use them. Instead, when create new user, push those apps from Owner. This is similar to Side of Burritos on Youtube.

anything different?

    Got 7 profiles actually.

    1. is the owner of course.
    2. Then I have my main profile.
    3. A untrusted profile. Shady apps cracked apps etc. This profile also is not allowed to run in the background.
    4. Then my finance profile. Has my banking apps and such.
    5. A testing profile. Used to test backups of grapheneos and such.
    6. A work profile. Dont need that to run in the background either. But is useful to stay in touch over the weekends.
    7. And a private profile.

    This way I can still use all my apps. While not requiring google play in all my profiles. Also being able to disable certain things for profiles is super useful. Running in the background, allowed to make/receive calls to name a few
