And you can’t join a group from desktop, so whenever I want to join a group I have to open Waydroid on my computer, open firefox on there, copy and paste the link into Firefox, and then open the app through that webpage just to join a group chat.
More likely your work profile is set up to block Instagram. Instagram doesn’t care who you work for.
How would I configure that? I use shelter to add apps to the work profile, basically to containerise them.
I’ve never used Android Work profile, but when I was a sysadmin, I did things like that with a DNS block. That would kill both the app and the web page.
Yeah, unless it’s my ISP I doubt it’s that. I have checked and I don’t have a DNS blocker active on my phone, and I’m on my home Wi-Fi.
What’s shelter
From f-droid:
Shelter is a Free and Open-Source (FOSS) app that leverages the “Work Profile” feature of Android to provide an isolated space that you can install or clone apps into.
For a full description, please read from the Git repository of Shelter. A summary is provided below.
The main use-cases of Shelter include:
- Installing apps inside a work profile for isolation
- “Freeze” apps inside the work profile to prevent them from running or being woken up when you are not actively using them
- Installing two copies of the same app on the same device
