iOS update issue

Hey guys! I have several iPhones currently running iOS 18.6.2 that need to be upgraded to iOS 26.3. I first tried updating them through the Automate tab, but that didn’t work. When I attempted to update them manually, I noticed there’s no update OS option available in the Actions menu. Has anyone encountered this?

How can I ensure VPP apps install silently?

 Hey everyone, we are setting up some enterprise VPP apps to be deployed under the “Required Apps” policy. The devices were added via Apple Configurator and are all in Supervised mode. Before I push this out to the whole fleet, can anyone confirm if these will install silently without any user prompts? I'm trying to avoid having my users deal with any pop-ups.

Unable to Uninstall Applications on ADE-Enrolled iPads

Hy everyone, We’re facing an issue with uninstalling apps from our iPads that are enrolled via Apple ADE. The Remove Apps option is enabled under Advanced Restrictions in Hexnode. When we try to remove an app, the option to remove apps is visible, but the Delete App option never appears. We only have a single policy applied to these devices.…

New devices not synced in ADE

Hey, is there any reason as to why my new devices are not showing up in the Hexnode portal? I used Apple Business Manager to enroll them to my portal, and the ABM integration does not seem to have any issues.

Policies

Select Devices within Group

I have a lot of iPads, and need to group them according to the location they are deployed. Management within the group selection is limited, and cannot select individual devices within the group. More management abilities should be available from the group instead of limiting them all to the general screen which is a mess.
