Using Second Space is like having two devices or accounts on the same phone. While First Space is the usual ‘everything is here’ type of space, second space can be configured to have specific apps, without much of data to have a fresh clutter-free experience. This space can be used if someone wants to use your phone or if your kid is interested in using your phone and you do not want a kid to have access to everything. In this guide, we will take you through the essentials of setting up and using ‘Second Space’. We have compiled a few guides for Redmi 4A. Head to this page to see the full list of guides.
