Yep, dual sim is a thing. However, my employer wants full control of the phone so they provided an iPhone. (I'm an Android user) The biggest pro of 2 phones is that you can silence the work phone outside work hours.

With my 1st temp job ('99) I told my boss that the best feature on the work phone the power button was. The moment I left the building it would be turned off. Alas, those modern phones have a complete sequence to go trough to get them off, so I now use the automated do not desturb. Alas, iPhone has only times you can set daily, instead weekday dependent times. Between 18:00 and 7:00 the thing is quiet, no exceptions.

Interesting! Can work track your location via your work phone?

Yep, when they have control overthe phone, yep. This iPhone tells me it's managed by my organisation so they can do what they want with it, including looking up the location of the device.

Thank you for confirming. If I have to get a work phone in the future, I'll get a separate device.
