Google Work Profile to help Android users get big relief

The novel coronavirus pandemic forced most businesses into a work-from-home (WFH) model, with other companies switching to hybrid working models. With remote working becoming the new normal, work hours have blurred and people around the world are struggling to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Google is looking to help users in this regard, by opening up its Work Profile tool to users globally. The company said that Work Profile would later be expanded to include anyone with an Android phone who will be able to turn off their business apps with just one button.

The company explains that it would make its Work Profile tool available for users next year, as part of Google Workspace. For users who have not used the Work Profile tool, it is the company’s built-in service on all modern Android phones that allows users to add their company’s email apps to their personal phone, with the option to completely switch off those apps with one button.
