  1. UAMDM status

    Since user accepted things are pretty important with kernel extensions and with 10.13.4b1 Apple is adding more profiles that require UAMDM. It would be extremely helpful if we could get this status on the machine details page right under the FileVault status. The UAMDM info is also coming back from the machine in that same SecurityInfo request so it should be pretty easy to pull apart.

    PS AirWatch just added this with v9.2.3 :)

    UAMDM status and DEP are now shown under “Enrollment” in the device details screen. UAMDM is also found under the “is_user_approved_enrollment” key in the API.

  2. Scope API key

    I'd like multiple API keys able to be generated in the UI that have scoped permissions, for example, one API key restricted to only being able to hit the device endpoint, or one API key only being able to access Users.

    With this feature, it would reduce the threat of the API key being compromised as it's potential scope would be limited.

  3. Assign settings (especially certificates) to individual users/devices

    I would like to be able to push per-user TLS certificates to devices. This is useful for authenticating users' devices to internal web sites and VPNs (e.g. OpenVPN Connect app) as an additional layer of security before an attacker would even be presented with a login prompt, and it is a requirement of certain firewalls' OpenVPN configuration.

  4. Remember Group and # of devices to display on the Devices screen

    Remember Group selected and # of devices to display on the Devices screen. Currently every time you navigate back to Devices page, it goes back to listing all groups and only the first 20 devices.

    The Devices page now remembers the number of devices (20, 40, or 100) selected. I will close this request, but if there are other options you'd like to see implemented (such as retaining group filter), I'd kindly ask that you submit a new suggestion.

  5. 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.

  6. Maximum auto-lock time

    Increase the options for "Maximum auto-lock time". Possibly might be good to have the same options as "Maximum grace period before lock". That way it can be synced to have a password required when the screen locks.

  7. 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.

  8. 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

  9. Save the last used sort order of the devices list.

    When checking the devices I often sort by something, like date last seen, then click on a device to view. When I return to the devices list I want to just click the next device, but the sort order has been reset.

    This was implemented a while ago but we seem to have missed marking it has complete.

  10. 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.

  12. 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!

  13. Printable Receipts

    A printable version of the billing history would be perfect. For now one needs to make screenshots of the billing history for accounting purposes.

  14. Allow a view device URL based on serial or device ID

    Watchman Monitoring is looking to build an integration for Macs which are enrolled in SimpleMDM.

    One thing we'd like to do is present a URL which lands at specific device. Currently this can be done with an internal SimpleMDM ID such as:

    https://a.simplemdm.com/admin/devices/123456

    If URLs such as these existed, we could do that without the need for any API/account access

    https://a.simplemdm.com/admin/devices/UNIQUEIDENTIFIER
    or
    https://a.simplemdm.com/admin/devices/SERIALNUMBER

  15. update iOS (for DEP devices that support it) via the API

    Just looking at the API now, and it would be amazing if the ability to update iOS could be added to the API. I can envisage all kinds of scripted updates out of hours to make life easier for remote admins - for example scripting moving out of single app mode, updating the OS and moving back into Single App mode

  17. Device page "Show" settings preserved on my session

    Upon choosing to show more devices on the devices page e.g. 20/40/1000, when I reload the page I want these settings to be preserved on my session, so I don't have to click 20 / 40 / 1000 - ALL

  18. Allow updating of a custom profile

    Many times building a custom profile is iterative and sometimes needs to be changed.

    It would be great to be able to upload a new .mobileconfig that overwrites the existing profile and deploys the new profile to all devices immediately without having to un-assign and re-assing to groups.

  19. Provide a preview of custom config profiles

    It would be very helpful to be able to see the XML of the custom profiles that have been uploaded in the event that the profile naming itself is bad.

    That way I can know if the target profile is doing what I am expecting it to do or not.

  20. Show resolved Custom Attribute values if not currently overridden

    It would be great to be able to see the value a given device or group is inheriting from the default / group-defined value.

    For instance, if I have a globally defined passcode length of 4, and a group level passcode length of 6, then when I am viewing the attributes of a device in the aforementioned group, then I see "6" as the "prompt text" for the text field.

    This will allow me to know if I should define an override for this device/group or if the inherited value is what I want already without having to navigate away…
