- Android 14 QPR2 Beta 1 includes a new settings stub for a “Private Space” feature.
- While the feature is not live, it appears to be similar to “Private Space” features on other Android skins that create a separate user profile to hide apps and data from the primary profile.
We all have certain apps on our phones that we’d rather not have other people snooping around in. Privacy-focused app lockers have long been some of the most popular apps on the Google Play Store, so it’s evident that people do want ways to keep some apps and data secret and separate from the rest of their phones. Google appears to be working on a way to do that within Android itself, so you won’t need third-party apps to hide your apps, files, and photos soon.
