Meta can't scan my phone if I don't install Meta's apps on my phone.

A web browser on the phone removes the need for a lot of "apps".

Shouldn't they be required to offer a work phone if they require you to install an app on a phone? It may depend on where you live

My company provides us with a $100 a month cell phone stipend instead of giving us phones.
