I’ve been using Google’s native MDM. I can’t do any of those on a personal device. The only thing I can do with a personal phone used for work is wipe the android for a work profile off of it. If you’re using a company device, I cannot do any of that. The only thing I can do is wipe the entire phone and that’s it.

I used to do MDM at my last company. The post here is very misinformed on how it works.

All companies can do is wipe your phone and configure settings. They cannot read what's on the phone, except for the stuff in the work profile and even then it's limited.

I have a corporate phone with a personal and work profile set up and have no issues browsing porn. That's how confident I am.

The only risk is if you're on a regular cellular network, your company could ask the mobile network to send the sites you visit. But if you're VPNing or on your home wifi, that won't tell them much.
