Does anybody have any workarounds for apps that don't work due to "security"? I have a few apps that I need for work that think my phone is rooted (it is not) and refuse to run. One is Entrust Identity Guard. It just won't open ("app keeps stopping") and the other is Service Now mobile ("a rooted device is not allowed").

Not really a solution directly. Buuut, if your work is requiring you to install shit on your phone, they should be providing you with a phone, or paying the lion's share of your bill.

Only managers get a phone. You can expense $5 of your bill each month if you spend over a certain number of hours performing after hours support. My app is stable, so I don't exceed the minimum, but I need to carry my laptop around now so I can at least log in to see the ticket and route it to the correct group.

Also, I've been interviewing. 🤞

Sounds like a place not worth being

Use something like Insular to create a work profile and install the apps there, along gapps and chrome.

That way you keep your work stuff sandboxed, with the bonus of turning them all off when your shift is over.
