Wi-Fi SSID for device shows up as unknown SSID

Hey people, recently I’ve noticed that after enrolling a few Android devices, the SSID of the network to which the device is connected is shown as under the Devices tab. I tried scanning the device again after enrollment but it remained the same. Does anyone know a fix for this?

Why use an SDK when the APK is enough?

Hey y’all, I’ve been working with a few Android tools lately and keep coming back to the same question: why don’t more platforms support direct APK usage? I mean, if you’ve got the app package right there, why jump through SDK hoops? Just let us test or deploy the APK, done deal. For anyone unclear;…

Mock location on Android

Hi everyone. We recently discovered that some employees are changing their location on our company-owned Android devices. This affects our field staff tracking, as they are marking attendance and site visits without being there. Is there any way to prevent this?

Control enrollment type without scanning a QR code

We're transitioning from one mdm software to hexnode, and running into an issue with our Network Certificates.

Use keyboard for Android Remote Control

It would be beneficial if users could use their computer keyboards to type remotely on the device, rather than having to click on the virtual keyboard. This feature would allow me, and likely many other users, to stop using TeamViewer and consider upgrading to Ultimate.
