Query on BitLocker startup screen

Hi Team, I’m working with a customer who requires BitLocker encryption on Windows devices. The key requirement is that the BitLocker startup screen must be the first prompt after powering on the devices, and the user must enter a PIN before the Windows login screen appears. Encryption is completed successfully, but after reboot, the device goes straight to the Windows login screen and…

How to temporarily remove a policy from a device

Hi team, One of my devices has a policy applied through a User Group, and I need to remove it from the device temporarily. However, I only see the option to associate policies, and there doesn’t seem to be a direct option to remove it. Could you please guide me on how to remove the policy from the device?

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?

Scan device location fails

Hi, I tried running the scan device location action on a Mac that’s currently in our warehouse. I was just testing it before deploying the device. The action is showing as failed in the action history though the device is physically there. Any idea why this would happen?

Can I automate local admin account password rotation?

Hey, is it possible to automate the local admin account password rotation remote action in Hexnode? I just did the action on one of my Windows PCs because an employee accidentally accessed the admin account, and I don’t want this to happen again.

How does the console handle mass actions so fast?

I need a sanity check here. We just migrated our last batch of 5,000 iPads over from our old on-prem system. With the old system, anytime we pushed a policy update to more than 500 devices at once, the console would basically freeze for 10 minutes while it processed the "write" commands. Yesterday, I pushed…

Add ability to update or create apps with manifest paths

Hey team, We sadly use custom ROM flashed android devices that don't allow us to own them through android enterprise the classic way. This means our options for automated deployment are slim, as you don't offer a way to upload .apk files directly to your API for distribution. Due to this restriction, it…
