I don't have time to work on this one. I did spend quite some time trying to set up/use and sideload apps into a working profile, but it was a nightmare. I would rather delegate this task to someone who knows more about it.

By the way, I did not find anything in the Inslular codebase that indicates that the app would work on working profiles, but maybe these two permissions have something to do with it.

<uses-feature android:name="android.software.device_admin" android:required="true" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.software.managed_users" android:required="true" />
