guest mode

Borrowed device setting

Guest mode is a restricted operating state on devices or software that allows temporary use without accessing the primary user's data or settings.

It provides a clean, limited environment that resets after use: Let me switch to guest mode so you can check your email.

Common on computers, phones, and web browsers when lending a device or using shared equipment.
