Meta can't scan my phone if I don't install Meta's apps on my phone.

A web browser on the phone removes the need for a lot of "apps".

Shouldn't they be required to offer a work phone if they require you to install an app on a phone? It may depend on where you live

		My company provides us with a $100 a month cell phone stipend instead of giving us phones.

If you're running android I believe you can set up a work profile with its own apps. On graphene you definitely can, with its own filesystem and everything.

I wouldn't install work programs directly on my devices without some kind of sandboxing because of cases like this.
