I like the idea of Focus, for me it lacks enough customisation.

I can add custom pages which in theory is great. However what I can’t do is have custom pages that have same content as others. So for example I need WhatsApp for work and personal, but I can only have WhatsApp showing on my work page and also a separate page for personal, it’s one or the other.

For personal, why can’t I allow all contacts and apps? This seems a basic omission!

I believe this is incorrect. You can have WhatsApp on both.

You need to drag a second instance of WhatsApp from the App Library to your other home pages. You can have unlimited numbers of the same app in iOS 15, even on the same home screen if you wanted.

Well I stand corrected, it does indeed allow this! Thanks.

Still need personal to have the ability to add all contacts / apps. Or can that also be done?
