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 agree with @Libb@piefed.social. I would not mix the two at all. If they want me to have a phone with their apps on it, they can provide me one.

    Also, for your privacy, it may not be actually the best idea to switch back to a dumb phone, because then you are limited to SMS, which is not secure, and phone calls, which are not secure.

    On a smartphone you have things like signal.
