Android Enterprise configuration is deleted from the Hexnode portal.

Hey guys. Is there any way to know which technician deleted the Android Enterprise configuration from the Hexnode portal? Our organization recently added new technicians to the portal, and we are doubtful that one of them may have accidentally removed the configuration.

Need a way to customize Android file manager app to point to specific folder

I need to have several versions of a customized Android File management app, with different names of course, on the home page. Each would open in a different subfolder and allow file operations there. Is there a way to do this? I submitted a feature request in January but have had no response.

Issues with Android in Kiosk Mode and NFC Badge Reader

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy XCover 5 in kiosk mode with an enterprise application. The app requires login via an NFC badge. However, NFC stops working when the device goes into sleep mode. Also, when switching between apps, the NFC badge reader fails to work with the intended app. Could anyone provide a solution?

Use keyboard for Android Remote Control

It would be beneficial if users could use their computer keyboards to type remotely on the device, rather than having to click on the virtual keyboard. This feature would allow me, and likely many other users, to stop using TeamViewer and consider upgrading to Ultimate.

Different Lock- and homescreen wallpapers

Hi, Is it possible to assign a different wallpaper to the lock screen than the one for the homescreen from the MDM? If not, is it possible to request the feature, because I am currently doing it by hand and that goes right until there is a policy update.
