MDM Managed App Configuration with Custom Properties
We now support deployment and registration via managed app configuration policies. These policies include:
- A registration key removing the need to deploy a QR code to register end users.
- Permissions to enable or disable the Add Registration and Remove Registration options.
- Ability to specify the device name identifying the iOS device.
- Ability to specify the hardware bios serial property value.
- Ability to specify custom properties allowing properties known to the MDM provider such as the device phone number, serial number or IMEI number.
A template file can be downloaded from the deviceTRUST Portal. For more information refer to iOS Managed App Configuration.
Bug fixes
- We’ve made significant changes to the reliability of the notifications, an essential component in establishing a connection between the deviceTRUST Agent and the iOS Client Extension.
Known issues
- As of iOS 16.0 and later, apps require a special entitlement to be able to query the user assigned device name of an iPhone or iPad. The iOS Client Extension does not yet have this entitlement, and therefore can only read the device name as either
iPhone
oriPad
. A unique device name is required for each device to successfully establish a connection between the deviceTRUST Agent and the iOS Client Extension. This limitation can be worked around by renaming devices within the deviceTRUST Portal, or by using an MDM app configuration policy to inform the iOS Client Extension of the real device name. - As of iOS 16.5 and later, cellular properties can no longer be queried from an iOS application.
Compatibility
There are no other compatibility concerns with this release of the iOS Client Extension.
