Boss bought me a shiny new nexus 7! So he has full rights to come use it whenever he wants. Is there a way I can sign in with my gmail, and him not have full access to my gmail, play store, Facebook, maps, etc, etc. the tablet would be in my possession 95% of the time.

Obviously a password or pattern won't work, as he would need that to use it a well.

Thanks for any help.
 
yes.. if it is still stock..

you can setup a 2nd user... the 2 will have different accounts... so private info should stay private.. and each can have their own security locks.

from homescreen...
menu..
settings
users..
add user

awesome! thank you!

so he won't be able to see my info in ANY apps? catch notes, evernote? contacts? Facebook? email? Pics? music, etc.

maybe the question I should ask, is, what can he see of mine?
 
things that require a login.. are safe.

but files you create and save on the device.. he can see them.
ex: notes.
but i think some might have the option to encrypt them. or save them into the cloud. like dropbox. look in my sig.
