SMC 6 and iOS 9.3 new educational enhancements

Detlef

With iOS 9.3, apple will release some really good new features for iPads in classrooms. And there will be some new MDM-controls:

New mobile device management (MDM) controls
iOS Device Commands
The following are new commands that can be issued by MDM solutions, such as Profile Manager:
• Set maximum cached user accounts: Using this setting with Shared iPad allows you to control the
number of accounts that are cached
• Delete user
• Log out user
• Enable Lost Mode
• Disable Lost Mode

iOS Device Queries
The following are new queries that can be issued by MDM solutions, such as Profile Manager:
• User list
• Device location
• Device information
- Is Lost Mode enabled
- Maximum cached users

When can we expect to see these new features in SMC?

Cheers

    Hi Paul,
    thank you for your answer. I did not expect that new features of iOS should be requested as new features for the SMC but that they will be implemented as soon as possible into the featureset of a MDM-Solution? OK, we are speaking about educationial things but I think that a lot of MDM-Users with large tablet-pools do come from that direction (schools, universities, ...).

    I really don't have a problem with opening a feature-request but all my "points" are in use right now as I am really interested in improving the SMC.

    Cheers
