Even after removing the wallpaper policy from the device, the wallpaper keeps reverting back whenever the user signs in or restarts the Mac. The policy doesn’t appear to be assigned anymore, but the wallpaper is still being enforced. Has anyone…

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. Because of this, policies are not getting associated with the devices. On one affected device, the Hexnode app displays a certificate error.

What should be done if an iOS device with Hexnode policy is stolen?

Hi team,  One of our iOS devices has unfortunately been stolen. It had a Hexnode policy applied, and the last check-in was about two hours ago.

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.

APNS Certificate renewal

Hey everyone,  I just got a notification that our APNs certificate is about to expire. I’m a bit unsure about the exact renewal process. Do I need to generate a new certificate from scratch, or is there a way to just renew the existing one? Also, how do I make sure I’m matching the right certificate in the Hexnode portal…

Why Use Windows Shared PC Mode for Shared Devices?

We manage Windows devices that are used by many different users every day—training labs, call centers, and shared office systems. Over time, these devices slow down, run out of storage, and sometimes retain data from previous users.  Instead of going deep into configuration details, can someone explain why Windows Shared PC mode is useful and when it actually makes…

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…
