I’ve been tinkering with the idea of switching back to a dumb phone. I haven’t dug too far into the search because every time I do, I get hung up on the apps I need for work - outlook, my work keycard app, etc. Is there any good way to work around this? Keep my current phone with only those apps for work, operating on WiFi, and switch my primary phone? If anyone has examples of things they’ve tried and what’s worked, that would be great. TIA!

I have a second cheap second hand phone for work only purposes.

My employer has their device attestation set to only allow intune / Microsoft products to sign in if you are running stock android. Graphene nogo.
