Password resets and 2FA are getting out of hand

Hey team, Hexnode. I’ve been using your service for over 5 years now and really appreciate the platform, but I wanted to share some feedback regarding the login requirements.  The mandatory password resets combined with the email 2FA are becoming a bit of a hurdle. Lately, if I need to log in to fix something quickly, I sometimes lose 10…

Error when uploading JSON configuration

Hey people, I'm running into a weird issue in the Hexnode portal. I'm trying to upload a JSON configuration file into one of my existing policies, but every time I try to save or upload it, I get a JavaScript error that pops up on the screen.  The exact error is: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'id')  The frustrating part is…

"Account not authorized" error during device enrollment

Hi everyone, I’m running into a wall here. I'm trying to add a new device to our Hexnode portal, but right in the middle of the enrollment process, it keeps throwing an "account not authorized" error. I haven't changed any of our admin credentials or Apple Business Manager settings recently.  Has anyone else encountered this? Any idea what triggers it?

What to do when the Kiosk Exit passcode popup won't appear?

Hey team, I’m kinda stuck. I have a tablet in Kiosk lockdown that I need to exit to change the WiFi password. I checked the policy and "Manual Kiosk Exit" is definitely enabled, but the tap sequence isn’t bringing up the passcode popup. I also tried the Reboot and tap to exit method as well! But no change! You guys have any ideas?

Devices being flagged as non-compliant (even with required apps)

Hey guys, could use some help here. A bunch of our iPads are getting flagged as non-compliant in the portal. The weird thing is, they definitely have the 3 required apps installed, so application compliance shouldn't be the issue.  I was looking through our compliance config and I'm wondering if it's the passcode requirement tripping it up. Should I just remove the password rule from the list? Anyone run…

How can I bypass Google's phone verification lock when setting up an account for Android Enterprise/MDM binding?

Hi guys!!  I’m trying to sign up for a new Google account specifically to manage our MDM software, but I’m completely stuck at the phone verification screen.It keeps rejecting my number or saying it can't be used for verification. Since I can't get past this, I can't finish the Android Enterprise binding, and I’m essentially locked out of setting up Hexnode. Has anyone else dealt with this?

What security and usability features should I enable in a kiosk browser to prevent users from exiting the app?

Hey everyone, we’re deploying 50 tablets for a public exhibit and I’m struggling to keep people inside the browser. I need to lock it down so they can't browse random sites or use the home/back buttons to get into the tablet settings. What are the specific settings and paths in the Hexnode portal to make this 'bulletproof'?

Remote wipe not working on Mac at login screen

Hi all, I tried executing a remote wipe action to a Mac, but it didn’t go through. The device was stuck at the login screen and I couldn’t get past it. I had to reset it manually. Just wondering if Hexnode can handle this remotely when the Mac isn’t with me.

iOS Business Container - System Apps

A great feature would be to have an option in iOS Business Container to allow copy/paste to System Apps fron managed apps. Appreciate we can deploy a different browser and restrict system apps, but the system apps tend to be used quite heavily.

Add ability to update or create apps with manifest paths

Hey team,   We sadly use custom ROM flashed android devices that don't allow us to own them through android enterprise the classic way. This means our options for automated deployment are slim, as you don't offer a way to upload .apk files directly to your API for distribution.   Due to this restriction, it…

View policy version history

Policies are aware of their version but it's not possible to compare two different versions to understand what was changed. Please add a support to compare two versions of a policy and compare two policies for differences.

Update option in HexNode UEM App Catalog software

The UEM application App Catalog is aware of the software being installed, and is aware of the current version of software. It would be nice if there was a button that could be clicked in the App Catalog that would allow you to update the software. I spoke with support today and their recommendation was…
