Google Deleted Account that Links Managed Play Store
Hello all, We're facing an issue with our Intune/Managed Google Play connector. Google has deleted the account set up specifically to connect to our Managed Google Play instance in Intune. This has been an active link, with the last new device registered about 2 weeks ago and apps on devices being updated since then. We are currently unable to enroll new devices or add new apps. We are also unable to attempt to recover the account and have not been able to find a way to contact Google directly about the account issue. Barring being able to recover the account, are there ways for us to lessen the impact of creating a new account for the linkage? Or are we going to have to have all our Android BYOD users re-enroll their devices?
How to manage app using Intune
I want some suggestions on how to manage applications in our workplace. We purchased an Android app for our employees to work in the warehouse. The vendor provides two methods of getting the app to our devices. One is to download it directly from the Play Store, and the other is from the vendor's website. When something is broken, the vendor will roll back by uploading the new version of the app to the Play Store if the problem is informed on time. Sometimes, we have to go to the download site to download the previous version to solve the immediate issue due to the time zone difference. There, we want to manage the app using Intune. We want to deploy the apk directly to the device using Line Of Business. However, it only works if we enrolled devices using Device Administrator. Unfortunately, it is impossible now since Intune has stopped supporting this enrollment type. If we use the Play Stores managed private app to upload the apk, it would get an error with the package name. We do not think that the vendor will build different package names for every customer. So here is my question: How could we achieve something we achieved in the past and now we cannot? Intune said it is the change that Google made due to security reasons. Any suggestion would be much appreciated!!!
Managed Play Store is empty on devices
We are using Intune to manage our devices and have configured a Managed Goole instance for applications. Problem is that no apps what so ever is visible in the managed play store on the users devices. When I open the managed play store it just says found no results as if no apps were published. If I search for lets say Outlook. then I can see the Outlook applicationin the search result. Applications that are set to required on devices are installed just fine. Tried several device, both physical and virtual with the same result. Also tried various ways to enroll and administrate the devices Any tips or suggestions?
Stronger management of company-owned devices with Android 15 for business
15th October, 2024 For company-owned devices, Android 15 empowers you with advanced management capabilities to help you take control, optimize your fleet of devices, and safeguard your business – on your terms. Explore new tools to navigate the modern workplace with Android 15. Streamline eSIM management for managed devices Android 15 streamlines adding, removing and provisioning eSIMs on both company-owned devices and managed BYOD devices. Simple eSIM management* on managed devices makes it easier to onboard and offboard employees. This means IT admins can spend less time setting up eSIM devices, and more time on impactful work. *For all devices, eSIM management is conducted via the EMM. Additionally, for BYOD devices, the device’s owner is responsible for using and activating the eSIM, and the user can delete the eSIM at any point. Secure personal profiles and private spaces on COPE devices Extend your existing personal app policies to the private space on company-owned devices. IT admins have better control over the device’s security posture with a limited set of privacy preserving security restrictions* for selected apps outside the Work Profile on company-owned devices. An additional set of privacy safe security configurations for core apps will be made available at a later date. *AMAPI managed devices will have the ability from Android 15 onward. Managed configurations apply only to company-owned, personally enabled (COPE) devices. Enforce the default apps for personal profile on company-owned devices IT admins can now enforce the default dialer, messaging app, and browser* in the personal profile when setting up company-owned devices to add an extra layer of security without compromising user experience. * Available only on company-owned, personally enabled (COPE) devices. IT admins can only make an app the default if it’s already in the user’s personal profile. To ensure OEM defaults for dialer and browser are set, this feature should be configured prior to set up. Enable seamless searching for your teams with Circle to Search Forget juggling multiple apps. With new admin controls for Circle to Search* on both fully managed devices and within the Work Profile, IT can confidently empower employees to search directly from their work apps. They can simply circle, scribble, or tap content for more information. *Circle to Search requires internet connection and compatible apps and surfaces. Results may vary depending on visual matches. For Android Enterprise managed devices, the feature is available on fully managed devices and devices with Android Work Profile. For company-owned, personally enabled (COPE) devices, Circle to Search is subject to the IT admin’s ability to turn off screen capture, which will disable the feature. For employee-owned devices with an Android Work Profile, Circle to Search within the personal profile remains unaffected by IT admin policies. Available on Pixel P8, P8 Pro, P6 series, P7 series, Pixel Fold, Pixel Tablet, Samsung S24 series, S23 series (incl. FE), S22 series, S21 series, Z Flip 3/4/5, Tab S9 series, Tab S8 series. Extend battery life with screen brightness and timeout controls Android 15 introduces screen brightness and timeout period controls* for company-owned devices. IT admins can adjust settings to optimize device efficiency for frontline staff, extending battery life to help them power through a shift without any device downtime. *Available on company-owned, personally enabled (COPE) devices, fully managed devices, and dedicated devices.
