    Dynamic Lockdown - Don't display icon if app doesn't exit Solved

    Hi, I am playing with the dynamic template in hopes of coming up with a solution to resolve an issue we are having with kiosks at the moment.  We are actively migrating our devices from one version of our application to a newer release which have different package IDs.  It's become very cumbersome to build and maintain 2 different profiles per customer device grouping and swapping them once we know an app has been updated.  If the profile swap doesn't happen or if we don't know a customer has migrated apps, they will then have a kiosk with no apps present until someone manually unassigns/assigns the profiles properly. I was hoping to utilize the dynamic HTML template and tweek it where I could add both application package IDs into the lockdown and the template would only display a link to an app if it actually exists on the device. I wasn't sure if anyone had experimented with a similar solution or had any other ideas.  Thanks

    Force an app to use mobile data only Solved

    We have Samsung tablets from AT&T that are running Android 11 UI 3.1.  I thought there was supposed to be a setting under Settings -> Connections -> Data Usage -> Mobile Data Only Apps to force an app to only use mobile data.  Is there any other way of making an app only use mobile data while it is on a WIFI network?

    Conditional Access - What about personal profile on Android devices?

    Hi all together, we are planning to upgrade our MobiControl environment to version 15.5.2 and would like to use the new feature "Conditional Access" for our O365 applications. I am asking myself, what happens with COPE enrolled devices (or BYOD devices) which both contain a work profile and a personal space. After synchronizing the device details to Azure, will a user be allowed to connect to O365 from his personal profile? Does anybody know?

    SOTI Lock Down Screen Error

    We are trying to add a custom app to the home screen and it throws an extremely generic error. We checked the other apps and there isn't a difference from what we can see. We also tried recreating the lockdown screen and it still is throwing the same error. Does anyone else have any ideas?

    How to find Enrollment ID on new SOTI WebConsole? Solved

    Hi All, Based on this KB article, Enrollment ID can be seen only on the Legacy console, but for me if I open it, the Add Devices menu option on the Android+ page is missing: I guess it's not there since we've upgraded our MobiControl to version 15.5.0.1021. Do you have any idea where else we can check the Enrollment IDs? Thank you in advance!

    App not starting lockdown, but starts without problem after lockdown exits

    Hi, We have some Unitech HT730 mobile android barcode scanners, they are running Android 10, and are registered as Android Enterprise.   We are running a native lockdown but for some reason in lockdown mode the barcose scanner system service doesn't start, we have to go into admin mode and then start it, then back into user mode.  We could not run the scanner service directly as its not designed to be run directly. Our supplier has supplied an app called Unitech USS launcher, which if run in admin mode works fine and starts the scanner service, but if run using the package id in lockdown mode does nothing. I have confirmed we are using the correct package ID as if I run a script containing start com.unitech.usslauncher it opens, but if in lockdown mode it doesn't. What am I missing please?

    Allow brightness configuration whilst using Native lockdown Solved

    I am trying to provide users with a brightness control to train the adaptive brightness algorithm whilst the devices (Honeywell CT60) are locked down. I can achieve this by using a UEMConnnect (OEMConfig) schema to restrict all of the quick settings buttons and allow the user to expand the status bar to reach the brightness slider but I cannot work out a way to do this with a Native lockdown. We do not wish to use Activity Suppression. A couple of years ago, we made a feature request for Settings Manager to allow the brightness slider to be used when adaptive brightness is switched on, but unfortunately it's still a case of using one or the other.
