Would those be properly isolated from each other though?

I’ve seen people using dual apps (this tech has been out for several years by now) to have completely independent instances of an app such as whatsapp so that they can be online for say friends and family, but leave the other instance offline for work.

It’s also used a lot for cheating too 🥲
