    How to always trust camera at Soti Surf on iOS?

    Although Camera Enable switch is set on, Soti Surf does not take this camera permission into account. A user has to allow camera manually every time a webpage accesses the camera.  At Safari, there are three options at the Settings: Ask, Disable and Enable. Ones it is enabled, Safari stops showing the prompt. (Surf only has two options - Disable and Enable).

    Email profile with Azure MFA

    Hi, does anyone know if Soti supports email profile configuration that requires Azure MFA? On our iOS devices, the native email app works  no problem if we configure the email account with MFA manually. But it doesn't work if the email account is configured by Soti. Not sure if it is something on our configuration side or Soti just doesn't support it? Thanks.

    iOS XML Layout Restriction

    I've created an XML layout file to structure a container with apps a certain way. I've identified that the XML conflicts with the Allow App Removal feature within Feature Control. I cannot find documentation to overwrite this restriction/impact within the XML file; this affects apps that are mandatory and suggested from DEP. Has anyone come across this issue? Is there a key value that I can use? I've attempted to set <key>allowAppRemoval</key> as true into the XML, but this didn't work.
