1) He wants to log in to several accounts of the same app at the same time. One way to achieve this is to use clone apps, but he is worried about those apps (spying, stealing personal data etc.). You have to give a lot of permissions to them.

There are some popular clone apps but they don't seem to be trustworthy. They are from China or India. They are bundled with bloatware and obtrusive ads, or lurk you into installing recommended apps.

Do you know if there is any clone app which is trustworthy?
Or is there any way to clone app by ourselves without the need of a clone app?

2) There are some apps which need the storage permission (to store files), but it is an all-or-nothing permission. You either let them access all files or not.

Is there any way you could put your private files/pictures to a specific folder and restrict the access, so even the apps which are granted the storage permission couldn't access this folder?

Thank you.
