Tap and Swipe Gesture in kiosk peripheral settings??

Guys, I’m messing around with the Hexnode kiosk settings for some Android OS running tablets I’d bought. I see this option for "Tap & Swipe gesture" in the Peripheral settings for Android kiosk in the Hexnode portal. It says I have to tap 3 times and swipe down to open settings? Why wouldn't I just use the "Floating Icon" option? It puts a button right on the screen. Seems way easier.

Non-compliance issue in app installation

Hey Hexnode Community,  I've got an enrolled device flagged as Non-Compliant, and I think the issue seems to be with one of the Required Apps policy I pushed out.  The app is definitely installed on the device, so I'm confused about why the compliance check is failing. Does anyone know why this might be happening and what I can do to clear this compliance status?

Add ability to update or create apps with manifest paths

Hey team,   We sadly use custom ROM flashed android devices that don't allow us to own them through android enterprise the classic way. This means our options for automated deployment are slim, as you don't offer a way to upload .apk files directly to your API for distribution.   Due to this restriction, it…
