The folks getting a nasty surprise are people who bought smartphones not designed for US networks. Some of them aren’t sold here, like Huawei and Xiaomi models.

Even before the coronavirus pandemic made work from home (WFH) the norm, work-related smartphone notifications intruded in people’s personal time because they often use the same phone for work and their personal life.  

Google commissioned research firm Qualtrics to run a survey with 3,000 employees to find out what the main BYOD smartphone disruptions were, and whether Google’s Android ‘work profile’ actually helped people manage the blurring between work and personal lives under WFH conditions.
