Different behaviors for settings
Settings can behave in three different ways when a device has multiple users:
• Some settings can be changed by any user and affect all users, including the owner, for
example, language, Wi-Fi®, Airplane mode, NFC and Bluetooth®.
• Some settings affect only the individual user's space, for example, automatic data
syncing, screen lock, various accounts added, and wallpaper.
• Some settings are visible only to the owner and affect all users, for example, VPN
settings.
