There's a lot of sensitive information stored in your phone, but there may still be situations where you need to hand your device over to someone for whatever reason. Maybe a friend needs to make a call, and you don't want to risk them snooping through your private messages or photos.Luckily, most Android phones have a hidden feature that lets you avoid such situations. But not Samsung Galaxy phones, they don't have this basic feature, for reasons that have never been made clear.Guest Mode offers you the chance to set up a temporary guest profile that lets someone else do what they need to do without running the risk of them seeing something that they shouldn't. Likewise, Android will delete all evidence of their activity once they're done, ensuring total privacy and security for all.Here's how to set up Guest Mode on Android, and keep all your data nice and safe.
