  1. mdm eventlog

    Add a detailed EventLog in the MDM.

    It would be nice to know if commands/messages were successfully sent to a device.

    Logging is now available in SimpleMDM under Account > Logs.

  2. Allow unlimited apps in folders of "Home Screen Layout" profiles

    As far as I know, iOS does not limit the number of app in one folder, but currently with SimpleMDM interface to manager home screen layout we are limited to 9 apps per folder.

  3. update software on an individual device via the API

    As discussed in Slack - there's currently an "update_apps" command in the API - but that only applies to device groups. I'd like to be able to update software on an individual device via the API.

    i.e. to push a test device to the latest and greatest, but leaving other devices on the standard version...

    There's a button to do this in the GUI, so I'm hoping adding that to the API shouldn't be too bad?

  4. Add a "comment" field to the Kernel Extension policy page

    It would be awesome to have a comment field so we could note which app or developer each team ID or bundle ID is for.

  5. Setup a role option to only have access to view/rotate FV PRK

    We have techs that need to access the FV PRK for troubleshooting purposes and also rotate the key if they view/use it. The current Role options are too broad and give access to other features that the techs shouldn't have access to.

    I'd like to see a user Role option to allow only the rotation of a FV PRK and not the the rest of Push assigned apps and updates. Wipe, lock, remove passcode, locate, and message devices. Enable and disable lost mode for devices. Checking the box for that Role option gives me the rotation option but I don't…

    This is now possible with the "Allow secret information visibility" options for User Roles.

  6. app version device distribution

    See adoption of a specific app version.

    We publish continuously new versions of our mdm distributed enterprise app. Often, however, users decline to update to a certain version because e.g. they're in the middle of using the app. We know how to send another updated cycle out to the devices, but sometimes it would be helpful to see which devices have a specific version. Right now we have to manually go into each device, then to the apps section to see what's going on. Quite annoying for 30 devices and the numbers of our devices will increase in the future.

    I'm marking this one as completed because SimpleMDM does display this information on the "Installs" tab under the App Details (Catalog > click app name > Installs tab).


    If there is something else that you would like to see added to expand upon this, please submit a new suggestion. Thanks!

  7. Push scripts and or terminal commands to macOS clients

    I need to be able to push scripts and terminal commands to my macOS clients from my MDM solution.

    If this was in place, it would open up a lot of possibilities for tighter integration with a package distribution system like Munki.

    See the new “Scripts” feature on the side navigation menu.

  8. Lookup exact model

    Based on https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201300 you could show the exact model names.

    This would be useful to see the age of our Macs and distinguish between 13 and 15 inch models.

    Today this information is only available in the export.

  9. add an "auto-join" feature to wifi profiles

    I've noticed that configurator (and other MDMs) have an "auto-join" option that can be set when you create a wifi profile. I think this might help solve an issue we're having where we can't force devices onto a specific network. I'm hoping that judicious use of "auto-join" will allow us to select the correct network for a device via SimpleMDM

  13. Allow to apply a profile to a specific device.

    Would be great to have the possibility to apply a custom profile to a specific device without having to create a new group!

  15. Create Report For Installed Applications

    Report on all installed applications across all devices. If users are in a group that allows applications to be installed, include the installed/detected applications on this report.

    So, per application, number of installations, or a detail report per application that shows where it is installed (on which devices).

    We have just added an endpoint to the API that allows you to return a list of devices with a specific app installed and the versions installed on each device. This can be called on a per-app basis for apps that exist in your account's Catalog. Here is a link to the API documentation: https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#list-installs


    This API allows you to retrieve similar information to what you would find under the "Installs" tab when clicking into an app on the Catalog page.


    I will close this suggestion for now, but if you feel that the "Installs" tab under Catalog > [app_name] and API are not sufficient for your needs, please do not hesitate to submit a new suggestion.

  16. Include Custom Attributes in export

    With custom attributes I now have a place for my asset tags and assigned to values, but these values are not exportable. Even the API makes it very hard to retrieve these fields.

    See the new “Notifications” section under “Account”.

  18. Persistent settings (group) on re-enroll of device

    We'd love to see devices automatically re-assign previous settings when the device is re-enrolled. Currently, if a device is in SimpleMDM and gets erased/wiped locally, the device will re-enroll and be placed in the "Default" group, most settings are lost (Except Device Name).

    It would be useful if a device that gets re-enrolled would automatically appear in the group it was previously in rather than the default group.

  19. lost mode via API

    I would like to be able to enable lost mode via API.

    Better, would be the ability to configure a given time since a device has last reported its location… or last checked in, and allow either lost mode or lock to be enabled by MDM itself.

  20. Allow deploying of files/books to iBooks

    Allow deploying of files/books to iBooks. We would like to post and push some internal documentation into iBooks. This would be very helpful for our engineering staff who are out in the field so that they they do not need to carry service manuals with them.
