# Set up Required Apps policy to enforce app installation on visionOS

With the introduction of Apple’s Vision Pro, various industries are leveraging its capabilities for both routine and complex tasks. Ensuring these devices are equipped with the necessary applications is crucial for maintaining smooth workflows. Hexnode UEM’s ***Required Apps*** policy allows IT administrators to enforce app installations on visionOS devices, ensuring all essential apps are efficiently installed and managed, thereby simplifying app deployment across organizations.

 Notes:- The *Required Apps* policy is supported only on devices running visionOS 1.1 and above.
- Apple only allows the deployment of apps purchased via the Volume Purchase Program (VPP) and enterprise apps for visionOS.
