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.
