Multi-user accounts
About multi-user accounts
Create multiple user accounts to prevent others from viewing your confidential information, or to
keep your work and personal life separate.
There are four different user types:
l
Owner : Only the owner can log in to this account. As the owner, you can control all user
permissions. For example, you can add or delete users and guests, or authorize other users
calling and messaging permissions.
l
Sub-user : Suitable for close family and friends. Sub-users can use most features, except for
those that may affect the owner, such as restoring factory settings and enabling do not disturb
mode.
l
Guest : Guests only have limited access to your device's features.
l
PrivateSpace : You can create a PrivateSpace to store information you do not want to share
with others. After the space is created, you can install and use apps in this space and keep
them away from the access of others.
