Hey everyone, I am setting my new (used) pixel 8 with GOS. I read on GOS site a lot,but want clearer understand some things. How to set different profiles- one for private and one for daily use. I understood its possible, right? I read another bothering thing,that GOS use 2 steps authentication- fingerprints and pin to open the phone. I am very against biodata, I never use it. Is it possible to leave only with pin ? Any advice what to apps to install will be greatly appreciated.

    Here’s a good starting point, small list of a few items to do after flashing GOS.

    What to Actually Do After Flashing:

    Also look into private space, this allows you to run a “sub profile” in your main profile where you could install your already sandboxed Google play service as needed.

    There are 3 main kinds of profiles:

    1. User (including Owner)
    2. Private Space
    3. Work profile

    Each have their own apps, app data, profile data including a home directory, their own disk encryption keys and their own VPN configuration.

    Private Spaces and work profiles are similar to a user but nested inside of another user for actually usage them.
