Hi, I have a few Android tablets where I need to enable developer options. These devices are currently on kiosk policy. I don’t think I have the required pricing plan (like Ultra) to do this. Can someone help clarify?

What plan are you currently on?

Hi @mees,

There’s no need to upgrade to the Ultra plan just to enable Developer Options. This can be done with the Ultimate plan as well.

To enable it, navigate to Policies → Android → Advanced Restrictions.
Under Allow Settings, enable Developer mode.

Thanks, but the option is currently greyed out for me.

An update: Never mind, after logging out and logging back into the portal, the option became available.
Thanks everyone for the help!
