Tracking bug for review and future consideration. I think there's value in knowing when a user triggers guest mode, given that it's a profile switch with all kinds of plumbing fun -- lots of opportunity for sadness on the device. I would propose a daily counter for guest mode activations, and/or a daily count of minutes spent in guest mode. Probably the former is sufficient.
We'll need to think why this info would be of interest for our user - I can possibly think of encouraging them to setup another profile for users if they are using guest mode a lot and showing them how to do that... anything else that is top of mind? I'd like to have a few ideas bantered around first before we bring up adding another probe to FHR (and we'll wait until we've shipped FHR first).
I think the primary value is in my second paragraph: guest mode can cause significant negative health effects (crashes, data corruption, etc.), so I think the value is in correlation, which we can only do if we track occurrence.
