Wi-Fi hotspot under peripheral settings not working as expected

Hey everyone! I wanted to share something we have encountered with Android 16 devices in kiosk mode. When we try to enable the Wi-Fi Hotspot through the peripheral settings, it turns on but immediately turns off again. However, once we exit kiosk mode, the hotspot stays on and works as expected. We have noticed the…

Hey everyone, I’m managing Android tablets in a school where students are taking exams. I need to make sure they can’t use Incognito mode to bypass browsing restrictions during the test. Is there a way to completely disable Incognito mode in Hexnode Kiosk Browser?

Disabling RAM Plus on Android Devices

Hey folks, Has anyone figured out how to disable RAM Plus on Samsung devices? We’re using a mix of Galaxy S22 and S23 phones, and RAM Plus keeps eating up a few GBs of internal storage for virtual memory. Honestly, it doesn’t seem to improve performance at all, and I’d rather have that storage free…

Phone number not showing up in app configurations for eSIM devices

Hi everyone, We’re deploying a Managed Google Play private app through Hexnode with custom app configurations to prefill user data. Here’s the funny part, our employees use corporate SIMs for calls and personal SIMs for data like SIM 1& 2, but when the app tries to fetch the phone number using %phonenumber%, it sometimes decides…

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.
