Enabling system apps (Camera, Gallery) and WhatsApp on Android Enterprise

Hi everyone, I need some guidance on enabling a few specific apps for our Android devices. I want to allow users to access the Camera, Gallery, and WhatsApp.  Currently, all of these seem to be disabled or hidden by Hexnode by default. For context, we are enrolling these devices via Android Enterprise. How do I get these…

Manual host-based hardening steps for unmanaged Windows 7/8 PCs?

Hello! We use Hexnode for all our modern endpoints, but we have a few Windows 7 machines running legacy industrial software. Because they are air-gapped and OS-incompatible, they are completely unmanaged.  I know network isolation is step one, but what should we be doing on the actual machines themselves to harden them? Since we can't push GPOs…

Windows Enrollment Without Authentication & Third-Party App Patching

Hi, I have a couple of questions regarding Windows device management.  Is it possible to allow Windows device enrollment without authentication? I’m trying to simplify the enrollment process so users don’t have to enter credentials.  Also, I wanted to know if Hexnode can handle third-party patching? For example, updating browsers or productivity apps. If yes, how does that work?

Combining views in Patches dashboard?

Hi, I’m trying to get a consolidated view in the Patches dashboard where I can see device counts both device-wise (like laptops and mobiles by OS) and group-wise (for example, different branch companies) all in one place.  Right now, I’m unable to find a way to combine these views. Ideally, I want something that shows how many devices are present per…

Report of devices with number of assigned policies

Hi all, I’m trying to get better visibility into how policies are distributed across devices. Specifically, I need a way to list devices along with the number of policies assigned to each of them. Is there a report that provides this level of detail?

Automatic Offboarding

Hi, we’re working with BYOD devices and want to keep things minimal. The requirement is to monitor only the Outlook application without managing or tracking anything else on the Android device. Additionally, when an employee leaves the organization, we want to ensure that Outlook is automatically removed or the user is logged out, without affecting…

iOS Business Container - System Apps

A great feature would be to have an option in iOS Business Container to allow copy/paste to System Apps fron managed apps. Appreciate we can deploy a different browser and restrict system apps, but the system apps tend to be used quite heavily.

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…

View policy version history

Policies are aware of their version but it's not possible to compare two different versions to understand what was changed. Please add a support to compare two versions of a policy and compare two policies for differences.

Update option in HexNode UEM App Catalog software

The UEM application App Catalog is aware of the software being installed, and is aware of the current version of software. It would be nice if there was a button that could be clicked in the App Catalog that would allow you to update the software. I spoke with support today and their recommendation was…
