Ability to block Chrome dinosaur game on Android
- 6 days ago
As said, its not possible (yet). But I'm more curious about the why? What is the reason for blocking this? I've heard this request once and that was because people took their devices offline and started playing the game in stead of working.
But a easy workaround for this, and faster than getting a request approved, is by preventing people from taking their device offline. Their are more policies available to do that, then there are for blocking the dino game.
We have a custom MDM that is used in an on-prem secure environment so there is no access to the cloud. The wireless coverage is also very spotty. How would we achieve what you are suggesting here? How could I prevent the user from simply navigating to chrome://dino?
I tried the URLBlockList managed configuration to prevent manually going to chrome://dino but this appears to only work with the cloud EMM and not through the use of DevicePolicyManager.setApplicationRestrictions() from our device owner app.
