Support iOS 10.3 Restart Device Command
In iOS 10.3, Apple has added support for remotely rebooting a device through an MDM command.
This would be a great option for unattended use cases to clear errors remotely. We've had a number of requests for this type of functionality in the past and I'd love to see it supported in SimpleMDM.

Force iOS Update
Give the ability to Force a Device to Update to the latest version of iOS. Without a request sent to the Device. I need the ability to just force the update without asking for an approval from the Device holder. My Customers are not very smart.

Update Apple Store Apps.
Can't Block or Allow Newer Apps. Such as the "TV" app from Apple. There are more I'm sure. This Needs to be updated more frequently. iOS 10 and up. Also, I would like the ability when creating Custom Screen Layouts for Devices to Have Access to or Pull in Apps that May not be in the App Store, but they are on our Devices or in their Listing. This way we can be more thorough with our Security and other protocols.

SimpleMDM supports scenarios where more than one device object may exist for a given serial number. Additionally, device objects do not always have serial numbers attached to them. For instance, a new device record may be created before device enrollment occurs. Such being the case, a serial number cannot function as a unique ID.
Nonetheless, the Device – List All API endpoint has been expanded to support searching for devices based on serial number, UDID, phone number, and name. This allows for more efficient device ID lookups. More information is available here: https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#list-all39

Add macOS account creation DEP options
Please add the account setup options to the macOS DEP options to the DEP options that SimpleMDM offers. They're described under "Account setup options (macOS only)"
Skip is very useful in AD/directory service environments where machines are bound(I'm not part of them), and creating local admin vs local standard user is just nice for flexibility.

Event to hook into when a new device enrolls (e.g: webhook)
Would be nice if it's possible to hook into some event when a device
gets enrolled. Since I'm not able to influence the polling I would like to
know when a new device is actually enrolled so I have an up to date start.47 votesWebhooks are configurable under Settings > API. Documentation: https://simplemdm.com/docs/api/#webhooks

"Google Account" Profile Support
We are a Google Apps shop and Apple has introduced a great profile called a "Google Account" profile. It specifically configures Email, Calendars, Contacts using Google's login and specific communication protocols (e.g. Web-based, not Exchange nor IMAP/POP).
It works for iOS and macOS, and works very nicely to activate new devices with their Google account.
The only requirement of the profile is the user's email address to be defined. I think this means the profile needs to be configured as a provider, exactly as you have done with Mail/VPN/etc. profiles.
Because of this I cannot use a Custom Configuration Profile,…

This currently can be accomplished with custom attributes. For instance, create a custom attribute named “simplemdm_group” and then assign a group-level value to the attribute for each group.

Allow removal of app(s) on multiple iPads
Ability to remove app deployed on multiple iPads. We have 15 iPads in the SimpleMDM platform in groups of 9 & 6, and 99% of the time we will push an app e.g. YouTube to either one of the groups or all 15 iPads. It would be easier if this were detected on all (& could be removed in a 'single click').

Allow for Device "Ping" when it hasn't been seen for a while
IF a device goes "inactive" or has synced to the system develop a way to "ping" the device and try to wake it up, or force it to sync.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! SimpleMDM already checks in with devices automatically, at least every hour. If a device has not been seen, something is preventing the device from responding or receiving communication requests.

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.

Managed App Configurations by Device Group
It would be a great advantage to be able to apply a slightly different device configuration based on the Device Group. In the case of multiple iPad Kiosks that simply load a website, The Device Groups each require a unique home page set in KioskPro Plus.
Let me know if I'm missing some part of the interface that provides this.
Thanks.
