IOS Auto App UpdatesSolved

We need an auto update feature for non mandatory applications or a way for users to update applications from the app catalog? This is a major pain point from our previous mdm. We can not feasibly make all the different apps mandatory for all the different users needs. We would end up with hundreds of custom profiles.

Hey @ermjbrown, thank you for reaching out to Hexnode Connect!

We understand your concerns. App management could indeed be quite the hassle, especially when managing multiple departments each with diverse application requirements within them. And manually keeping track of all the applications on the users’ devices and ensuring that they are all up to date is simply not a viable solution.

However, unless an application has been associated via Hexnode policy, we are unable to manage them further. This includes pushing new app updates.

I’m sorry that we do not have an appropriate solution for you, but we’ll keep an eye out for any new developments in app management that align with your requirements. And we’ll surely let you be the first one to know.

Best Regards,
Audrey Black
