One problem I have always had with smart phones (any smart phone) and tablets, is permitting others to use my device. It would be usefull if one could create a guest account on the device, and switch it off when it's not needed. That way I would feel more confident in allowing a friend to borrow my phone.
I have a phone with Ubuntu Touch pre installed on it, and I love the look and feel of the operating system. But I tried to create a new user, using the terminal e.g. "useradd guest" and it didn't work. Maybe someone thought that command would be unnecessary on a phone. But I need something that would permit me to allow limmited access to my phone for another person.
