Auto turn off hotspotSolved

I have seen a couple of restrictions for hotspot in Hexnode, but is there any android restriction in the policy where the device hotspot turns off when no device is connected for a period of time? It would have been nice if there was a way.

I am not sure if that is possible. I know some Android phones have an option called “turn off hotspot automatically,” but this is not available on every device. Because of that, I am not sure how feasible it is from the Mdm side.

Hey @eliiza

Thank you for reaching out. 

As of now, we do not provide any restriction that turns off the hotspot when no device is connected for a period of time. We do offer restrictions to allow or disallow configuring hotspot and tethering settings, or to set the hotspot SSID, but I believe you have already checked those. 

We will share this with our team. While we cannot confirm anything at the moment, please know that your feedback has been noted and is being looked into. 

If you have any other questions, feel free to let me know. 

Cheers,
