Re: Managed configuration to Gboard has disappeared from MDM
Hey team, Just a quick update from me. I can see an open ticket for this that came in overnight. I've added our community thread/feedback on to this as well. But, based on what you have mentioned about your specific MDM/EMM, I imagine other tickets will be opened around this too. I'll keep a close eye on it as the engineering team investigate this further. It's great to hear your updates, so please do continue to share. Thanks so much for highlighting. LizzieRe: Managed configuration to Gboard has disappeared from MDM
Thanks badams1 (great to see you in the community) and Moombas for the tag. We'll have a dig around to see if we can find out more and come back to you. As you are both on different EMMs this sounds like, as you say, directly related to gboard - so thanks for this. LizzieRe: Can't add a new private app to a Collection in Managed Google Play Store (Intune)
Hey rlsmi, great to meet you and sorry you are experiencing this. This sounds a little different to what Seb mentioned here, as yours is impacting the iframe. I wonder have you spoken about this with Intune? Seb, it would be great to hear any update you had one yours - hopefully the webapps are all showing for you now. Thanks, LizzieRe: Pixel watch notifications from work profile
This is great to hear kayakin_dan - please do come back and share how this is going, it is will be a great moment when it starts to work for you! 🎉 Out of interest have you been using the work profile on your Android for long? It's very cool to hear you fish off your kayak, I was speaking with someone the other day how had just been out on a kayak fishing for mackerel, it sounded very relaxing - but he didn't have much luck with the fishing that day! 😀Re: Pixel watch notifications from work profile
Thanks so much for sharing this kayakin_dan. When you say ''Access to work profile notifications is blocked' does it say this directly under the category item or when you click on an individual app (following the breadcrumb you mention here)? If you have a photo that would be great. I am able to get work profile notification on my watch, so it does sound like as you say, a potential policy restriction. Out of interest have you spoken with your IT team about this at your company? (As as side note, love your username - I presume you are a fan of kayaking? I am too - considering getting a sea kayak at the moment - would be great if you could share a bit about this in our community intro discussion) 😀Re: Are managed Android devices really prone to malware?
Hey Moombas, Michel, jasonbayton, Alex_Muc, Yann_ROLAND, Kumaresh90, Rakib, jarmo_akkanen, Timmy, MelkonTorosyan, DobromirPetrov just wanted to highlight this latest blog article on security, as you liked/commented the last few. 😀 Hope you find it an interesting read. Thanks.Re: [Community Team Update] Welcoming Emilie to the team...
I love this discussion. I'm definitely in the pizza fan zone too - I'm also thinking we may need to have a dedicated pizza / food thread in the community off-topic board...and dare I even bring up the olde question of whether pineapple should be allowed on pizza?!? 😂 Anyone up for that? So nice to see all the photos too and amazing side projects / interests that many of you have mentioned - keen to hear more on these too - thank you for sharing. 🤩 This discussion also takes me back to my early computer games, my brother had an old Nintendo SNES (& 64) which we played years after he got it - did anyone play one of these? I remember the games would always get dust inside them (I could have probably protected them a bit better) and so you'd always have to blow to clear them out before putting them in to play them - maybe this was just me (and weird the things you remember sometimes) - but that console lived on for ages, got some good fun out of that! hehe[Community Team Update] Welcoming Emilie to the team...
Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing well and are having a nice week. I’d like to update you all on some exciting community team news - trumpet fare please! Introducing Emilie_B , who will be joining me here in the Customer Community team. Emilie will be continuing to help with the smooth running of the community and in making this a great place for you to interact with others and share all things Android related. Please join me in welcoming her here by replying below or when you see her around in the community. Thanks so much, LizzieRe: Dispositivo
Olá Danilo, Thank you for your post - and sorry I'm speaking English here, I'm just Google translating your post to make it easier for others to possibly respond and help you: "I am looking to monitor data collectors in order to capture telemetry and alerts from these devices, focusing on the main players in the market, such as Zebra, Honeywell, among others that use Android. I would like to know how I can acquire documents or materials that address this type of management."Re: Celebrating World Earth Day! Share your experiences
Thanks Moombas, yeah I imagine the logistics here are intense 😆 , especially across multiple countries and different teams! Do you ever get any of your colleagues interested in keeping their devices? (I suppose it depends on what type of device they use, a rugged device might not be that suitable - although I'm sure there are lots of things you could do with them with a bit of creativity 😂 😃)Re: Celebrating World Earth Day! Share your experiences
Thanks Alex_Muc, this is really interesting. This new wave of 7 years updates sounds like it will be a game changer for many businesses and for the environment. It's interesting to hear that your users often like to use their device for as long as possible, is this due to having to switch and move their information over to a new device or for other reasons do you think? Your display case of 'retro' devices is a thing of beauty - I bet it's quite full now 😄Re: Celebrating World Earth Day! Share your experiences
Thanks for this Kris - great to hear this. So you tend to keep a device for ~4 years and then look to resell so that others can continue to use the devices - this is really interesting to hear. Is this process something you have done for a while or is it now that more and more devices are extending the length of their OS updates this is making this model easier to carry out?Celebrating World Earth Day! Share your experiences
Hello everyone, I wanted to take a moment to highlight that today, April 22nd 2025, is World Earth Day. In recognition of this, I'm sharing a video I found last year (August 2024) that offers an interesting look at the packaging redesign process for Pixel. While sustainability hasn't been a common topic of conversation here in the AE Customer Community much yet, I know from speaking with several of you that it's a consideration for many. I thought today would be a good opportunity to start a relaxed discussion around sustainability and generally the circular economy at work. I'd love to hear any tips, experiences (including challenges), and even the small, collective actions you take that can make a significant difference (at work or in your personal life). For example, thinking on devices - do you have any particular habits to extend the lifespan of your devices? Perhaps you have a minimum requirement for the number of operating system updates you look for, or maybe you have a specific process for recycling or reusing devices at the end of their life. Or perhaps if you work from home you make sure you turn screens and TVs off standby mode to reduce electricity. Looking forward to hearing your insights, ideas and generally how you feel/would like to see sustainability in technology will evolve over time. Thanks so much, Lizzie
