Could be using [Shelter](https://github.com/PeterCxy/Shelter) to isolate apps. I don't know how effective it really is.

Insular is another app that activates the Android work profile: https://secure-system.gitlab.io/Insular/

Both Shelter and Insular are effective for isolating your files, contacts, and phone logs in each profile. If you are using a VPN, it is limited to the profile that the VPN app is installed on, and you need to install and run it again on the other profile to cover the apps in that profile.
