Android devices showing offline due to certificate error?

Hi Team,  We’re facing an issue where multiple Android devices are showing offline in Hexnode, even though they have a stable internet connection.

PDF Access Issue in Kiosk Mode

Hi everyone, we’re using Android devices in kiosk mode through Hexnode UEM. Recently, we noticed that PDF files stopped opening on these devices. Whenever users try to open a PDF, they get an “access denied” message.

WiFi connectivity issues on iOS

Hi people, I keep running into this issue and I’m not really sure what’s causing it. There are no Wi-Fi policies set on the device. Sometimes the Wi-Fi just disconnects on its own, and when I check, there are no SSIDs showing at all. It looks like Wi-Fi is on, but nothing appears. The only…

More control for Rooted Android Devices .... Coming Soon

We’re working on a new remote action in Hexnode UEM for rooted Android devices: Enable Device Owner. Device Owner mode gives full, system-level control of an Android device to the UEM solution. It allows admins to enforce policies, manage apps silently, restrict hardware features, and lock devices into dedicated workflows ideal for corporate-owned or single-purpose…
