I wonder how good it is compared to shelter

It is an interesting question… It seems to me I compared it and I chose Island. But I cannot remember why :D

UPD. I chose Island/Insular only because it is updated more frequently:

The latest release of Insular was at May 20, 2024 and frequency is ~ a release per two months
The latest release of Shelter (on F-Droid) was at Dec 12, 2023 and frequency is ~ a release per year

Take a look at this:

Shelter is recommended over Insular and Island as it supports contact search blocking.

When using Shelter, you are placing complete trust in its developer, as Shelter acts as a Device Admin to create the Work Profile, and it has extensive access to the data stored within the Work Profile.

I also remember starting with island but changing to shelter because it supports app pausing without using a third party proprietary app to pause work apps
