PRIVATE SPACE:

One of the significant new features in Android 15 Beta 2 is Private Space. This is similar to Samsung’s Secure Folder, which allows users to hide private apps and files in a secure space. When Private Space is locked, its apps are paused and won’t appear in the drawer. On multitasking menu (Recent Apps), and the sharing menu (Share Sheet).
