Google’s Android for Work to spice up the market

Google has fired another salvo across Apple’s & Microsoft’s bows. It has released tools designed for businesses for Android-powered smartphones. Many say this will usher in a new front in mobile computing. The technology unveiled Wednesday tries to turn Android phones into a digital hub around people’s personal & professional lives. Last year, Apple had struck a partnership with IBM Corp. to build more iOS applications for businesses & government agencies.
The Android for Work has 4 parts to it. One of them is ‘Work Profiles’. Under it, users will be able to use 1 Android device at work as well as home by creating a separate profile to isolate & protect work data. Your wife will not be able to see your work data while your boss will not have access to your personal photos. Work profiles will only be available on devices running Lollipop, Android’s latest operating system.
