    Declining because the Quarantine feature has been deprecated and removed. However, if a feature that allows automatically locking devices based on some criteria is still of interest, please feel free to open a new suggestion.

  2. Set wallpaper to non-moving

    Wall papers move with the device. It would be good if we could disable this.

  5. Ability to view App Crash Logs on the devices

    Ability to view App Crash Logs on the devices.

    Suppose the App crashes and we need to see logs, then for the Apps deployed using Simple MDM, we should be able to access device crash logs

    Apple unfortunately does not provide the functionality for us to access the crash logs via MDM.

    Put more restrictions, like other systems of IT manangement to get the best of MDM and the iOS Apple Device.

    Apple does not currently make it possible to configure/restrict location services or background updates settings on devices via MDM. If there are other settings/options you would like to see implemented, please submit a new suggestion.

    Hi Chun Yun Wong- Apple doesn’t allow us to do this so we can’t implement it. Sorry!

  11. Specify the DNS servers - nameservers in the Wifi setup

    We are helping customers to set up their Iphone and Ipad so they can watch Norwegain TV while abroad.

    We are using the service from http://OverPlay.net to do this.

    To enable the service from OverPlay we need to change the nameservers in the WiFi settings.

    I suggest that this features is implemented i future versions.

    Hi Ulrich- Great request. Unfortunately, Apple doesn’t allow us to specify name servers. A possible workaround would be to either configure your customer’s DHCP servers to issue the desired name servers, or, to use the global proxy feature and configure the proxy to use the desired name servers. The latter will only work if the devices are in Apple supervised mode.

    If neither of these solutions are acceptable, your best bet is to work with OverPlay.net and suggest that they build their service so that custom name servers are not required.

    Sorry we can’t be of further help!

  12. Timed App Access

    It would be good not only to block certain apps but have the ability to block others a certain times of the day/week eg. school hours, nights etc.

    iOS does not allow for the ability to outright block apps.

    Closing this because there has been no new votes or activity for 7 years. If this feature is still desired / a priority, please submit a new suggestion.

    Apple does not currently have support for a GlobalProtect-specific VPN configuration payload. According to Palo Alto Networks’ site (https://www.paloguard.com/datasheets/globalprotect-ds.pdf), the underlying protocol used is IPsec/SSL. You may be able to configure your endpoints using the “IPsec” VPN option in SimpleMDM. We suggest contact Palo Alto Networks for further guidance on their suggested settings when configuring Apple devices to work with their VPN products using MDM.
