Improved Privacy and Security Setting
With the Android 11 update, Google has added the ability for users to grant apps certain permissions such as location, camera, and microphone access on a limited, single-use basis. Learn more here.
This gives you complete control of the permissions you allow for a particular app. For example, one-time permissions will enable you to grant single-use access to your most sensitive permissions — microphone, camera, and location. The next time Citrix Workspace app for Android needs access, it must ask you for your permission, as shown in the screenshots below.
Better Trouble Shooting with Built-in Screen Recording
With Android 11, you can capture and share any issues with Citrix Workspace app for Android. Record with sound from your mic, device, or both. There’s no need to install an additional app.
You can learn more about Android 11 updates on the official Android 11 page, and find out about Citrix Workspace app for Android OS support in this blog post.
