    Google Chrome Fullscreen | Lockdown | MobiControl 14.4

    Hello everyone, maybe someone here can help me. We have the issue that we are currently running a few devices with MobiControl version 14.4, and we are using the Google Chrome browser. We would like to open a website in fullscreen mode from the lockdown. Does anyone have an idea how we can do this? In MobiControl 2025.1, there are the app configurations where this can be set. Unfortunately, we cannot use SOTI Surf here because the integration with the proxy fails, and the helpdesk has not been able to assist me either. Is there a way to configure Google Chrome under MobiControl 14.4? Or does anyone have an alternative browser that could work? Thanks and best regards

    App Update // Uninstall when App is lower or same Solved

    Hi, i have a profile with a package (update) and send it to the phones. That works great. The app update and doensn't need the QR Code for a new registrate. But if i send the same profile with a package (same version or lower) to the phone, the app ill be uninstalled and new installed. In the case of the lower version, that is right and ok but i don't want it when the version is the same. Is there a possibilityy to configure that?

    Using writesecuresetting in Android Javascript script to update Private DNS Solved

    I've successfully used writesecuresetting in a legacy script to update the private_dns_mode and private_dns_specifier of phones running Android 13 and Android 14. Here's a working example: writesecuresetting -glo private_dns_mode hostnamewritesecuresetting -glo private_dns_specifier profilename.dns.nextdns.io However, I want to write a script that periodically checks to ensure that setting is still set, and corrects it if the user changes it. Also, I want to change the DNS specifier string based on the phone name and various other settings. I'm comfortable writing the necessary javascript logic, but I can't find a way to run writesecuresetting to change the setting. This seems like a significant oversight (either in the API design or on my part), and adding this would open all sorts of scripting possibilities. This may be an XY problem, so feel free to point me to a better way to do this. Edit: Just realizing this would be entirely possible if there was an API to run shell commands. That would open up all sorts of opportunities for more powerful scripting.

    Shared Device Login in Single App Mode

    Hi, I set up the shared devices as described in the video.(Configuring Shared Device) At the end, it explains that after logout, the login screen is shown in Single App Mode. How can this be configured? If I use a profile for it, I don’t have a way to distinguish between the states. If I use two profiles and move the device between two folders—one with the “normal” profile and the other with the Single App profile—I run into the issue that in 90% of cases, the login doesn’t work and times out. Additionally, is it perhaps possible to pass the credentials used for login to Outlook, so that the email inbox is set up automatically? Best regards

    Wanting to upgrade a play store app programmatically on my Samsung Xcover 6 Pro device.

    I noticed today while testing SOTI agent updates via the play store, that both and SOTI and the Workday app we have assigned show 'free' in app catalog. When i manually clicked on the free, it showed uninstall or update for the app and then automatically started updating. And now instead of 'free' it shows 'open' we have about 5000 of these devices and I know there are others that are stuck on 'free' waiting for the app to open via play store to prompt the update. How can i do this programmatically to get them all on the same WD version?
