IKEv2 support has been added. OpenVPN is currently not supported by Apple’s MDM protocol, nor by Apple’s built-in VPN client.

Device Details Report
Provide for some reporting. It doesn't have to be much but the ability to print all device detail in a single report would do the trick.
7 votesClosing this request since this is available with the Export Devices CSV. If there is something additional you'd like to see implemented, please submit a new suggestion outlining the problem or functionality.

bulk push VPN account setting to a group device
add the option for bulk push VPN account setting, such as i have 10 vpn service, and now i have add 10 times for each device. i want to push some VPN service to a group device only 1 time.
8 votesVPN accounts can now be assigned at the device group level. If the username and password field values are unique for each device, they can be left blank so that the user is prompted for the values. If you would like to add them as an administrator, custom attributes can be used to create username and password values on a per-device basis.

Alerts for MDM unenrollment
Customers need email alerts for the unenrollment of devices. Since Apple does not allow for the prevention of removal of MDM profiles, users can unenroll devices at will. The only way an administrator can know this without being logged into the portal one hundred percent of the time would be a proactive alerting infrastructure. Ideally, this would include multiple alert options including email, SMS and push notification to an admin device.

We now support push notifications to devices!
To support push messaging, sign in to DeviceLink and deploy the DeviceLink mobile app to your devices. You can also configure your groups to automatically deploy the app on device enrollment (on by default).
Let us know what you think!

tvOS - Managed OS Updates
With tvOS 12 adding support for managed OS updates (https://simplemdm.com/2018/06/15/apple-mdm-features-ios-12-macos-10-14/), it would be great if the Install Update icon method could be implemented for tvOS devices (like it currently is for iOS devices in the Device Details page)

allow for disabling notifications in iOS and controlling privacy System Services in MDM
I know Apple has some limitations on this but it would be good to be able to disable notifications on the screen from SimpleMDM. Also the ability to control the Privacy > System Services screen options thru a boolean on and off config like those available in a custom app configuration. Since this is an iOS control I am not sure if there is a string that can be added to allow for this under privacy controls or not. Thanks for your consideration.

Allow filtering based on MAC address in the Devices API
Currently only name, UDID, serial number and phone number are supported for filtering in the Devices API. In the context of a network, the MAC address is the only identifier available and is required for filtering.

Search devices by MAC Address
Currently the only way to search for a device in your MDM is by device name, serial or phone number. Adding the ability to search by MAC Address of the device helps advanced organizations search more thoroughly if a search inquiry doesn't contain the MDM's current search parameters.

Manually assign AirPrint Profiles without using groups
The only way to deploy AirPrint Profiles is via group memberships but in order to limit each iPad to only see the printer it should print to I would have to create a group for every single printer. This would mean several dozen groups at least.
It would be great if we can just go into a device's information and select which AirPrint profiles it should receive.
1 voteSimpleMDM added the ability to assign all profiles at the device level a while back - this is now supported.

add the option to push Wifi Profiles as Device Profile
This would be great for non-user-enrolled MDM Deployments.
Generally speaking it would be great if all payloads that work as Device Profile would have a Checkbox to do so (and maybe even default to the device channel)

Allow Download of Custom Profiles
It would be great to have the option of downloading previously uploaded mobileconfig files (or even better, edit them in the webinterface).
Normally i prototype profiles in Profile Manager, but since i cannot put every bit of information that is contained in the Profile into it's name, i have no possibility of checking what exactly i am deploying.
A download Option would make troubleshooting/debugging Custom Profiles a lot easier!
Thanks in advance.

Return the "Marketing/Human Readable" name for a Mac via the API
At the moment SimpleMDM can return a model name and a product name via the API.
However, the product names aren't unique - Apple occasionally reuse them... would it be possible for SimpleMDM to return the "Human Readable" name as well i.e. "MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2016, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports)" rather than just MacBookPro13,2
We'd like to use SimpleMDM to populate our asset management system via the API - and would prefer to use the Human Readable name
There are examples of how to do this here: http://scriptingosx.com/2017/11/get-the-marketing-name-for-a-mac/ and here https://github.com/MagerValp/MacModelShelf
1 voteSee the “model” key in the API response for the detailed model string.

This was added a while back but the post wasn't updated. The "For macOS devices, deploy as a device profile instead of a user profile." option now exists in the Passcode Policy profile settings to control whether it is deployed via device or user channel.

Display lastSeen on the device page
Right now it's only shown on the device list page but not on the page for a specific device.
Additionally, it would be nice to put the true timestamp in the alt field so that you can see the exact time on hover.1 votePlease find under “Enrollment” section of the device details screen.
