Google Playstore 45.2.19-29 [0] [PR] allows Device Config with active Lockscreen

It is possible with active KIOSK Mode that the User can change settings on the Device (without a restriction of MobiControl agent), as the user would be in the "system Preferences" menu.

What i can see is the affected Version from the Playstore : 45.2.19-29 [0] [PR] 732221263

With the Version 45.2.19-31 [0] [PR] 732221263 is the option not available.

How to reproduce with Playstore Version 45.2.19-29

  • Open Playstore
  • Tab on the User icon (right top)
  • Go to Settings
  • Expand the menu "General"
  • Tab on "Notification Settings"
  • Tab on "Account"
  • Then you see on the Right top Side the "magnifying glass"
  • Klick on it 
  • Then you can search and do many device configuration , when you know for what you need to search.
  • Like wifi changes or other Settings on the Device

MC Version 2024.1.2 & 2025.0.2

Device Agent : 2025.0.4.1100

When i go into the Playstore and klick "Update Play Store" it says "Google Play Store is up to Date" , when i enroll a new Devcie it is installing the Version "45.2.19-31" and all is fine.

Actually my only idea is to:

  • Install the Playstore update manually on the Devices
  • Reomve the Playstore from the Kiosk Screen

Has someone of you faced the same issue, or ideas ?
