Writing Apps for the Work Profile
summary
Explains how to make an Android app behave correctly inside a Work Profile: use managed configurations (app restrictions) to expose XML-configurable settings to the EMM, expect administrators to preconfigure or disable features, and test with Test DPC as a local EMM. Demos show Chrome obeying admin disables (no incognito, no sign-in) and pre-granted runtime permissions working; mentions there are over 140 EMMs and advises handling backups, camera, and cross-profile data carefully.
