About Island
Island is an open-source Android app and GitHub repository that uses Android profiles to separate apps from the main device environment. It is built as an engine and open platform for device policy controller (DPC) capabilities, with APIs open to third-party apps using standard Android runtime permissions as user authorization.
Because only one Android DPC app can be active at a time and switching DPC apps is described as heavy, Island focuses less on a rich feature set and more on supporting community development and third-party apps through its open API. The project depends on the deagle library and uses separate Gradle modules. Pricing is not stated.
