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.

Pull (available) MAC Addresses from supervised devices to improve device onboarding
Currently, SimpleMDM by default pulls the WiFi MAC address for all supervised devices, but does not pull ethernet MAC address.
During our device onboarding process, some of our Apple devices do not configure themselves over Wifi, and hence it is more valuable for us to pull the eth card MAC address instead (which now has to be manually copied by hand/scanned from device packaging/pulled from Network settings in MacOS).
We would like the option for SimpleMDM to retrieve both the WiFi and ethernet MAC Address (if available) for all supervised devices.
21 votesiOS 13+ and macOS 10.15+ will provide MAC addresses for additional devices beyond just the wireless network interface.

Show iOS version on the devices list
The devices list is super useful and it would be great to add a column that shows the OS version. I know you can export the devices list to get this information, but it would be good to have it front-and-center.
20 votesThis is now available. Click the gear on the devices table and select “OS Version”.

Integrate with AutoPkg
Please provide a consumable url for packages distributed via the Munki method for use with AutoPkg as a MUNKIREPO e.g. `defaults write com.github.autopkg MUNKIREPO /path/to/munki_repo`. Most Munki admins leverage AutoPkg for programmatic package management. Lovely work, thanks!

Store the remote lock/wipe PIN in the SimpleMDM webUI somewhere
At the moment, when you send a remote lock/wipe command - you're required to set a PIN. But that PIN isn't retained by SimpleMDM... which means you're trusting ME to do it... ;)
But more seriously - it would great for that PIN to be viewable in SimpleMDM. My use case? Service desk admin sends a remote lock for a stolen device, finishes their shift, goes home.
Laptop is found, someone else on helpdesk can pick up the ticket, retrieve the PIN, and send it on to the end user.
20 votesLock/Wipe PINs are now saved by SimpleMDM. They can be retrieved from the device details screen and the deleted device details screen.

list which groups are assigned a profile in the Profiles UI
In the Profile UI I can see how many groups are assigned the profile, but I can't see which groups those are.
This request is to add some sort of UI to display which group names (and maybe a direct link to said group) are assigned the profile. It would make troubleshooting the discovery of which group is missing the profile easier, etc.
20 votesA list of groups with a specific profile assigned can now be viewed in the admin interface. To view the groups with a profile assigned, go to the Profiles page, look under the "Groups Assigned" column next to the profile name. If the profile is assigned to any groups, you can click the number to view those groups.

Update multiple custom attributes via API
Currently only one custom attribute can be updated per API call either for a single device or device group.
https://api.simplemdm.com/#set-value-for-device
https://api.simplemdm.com/#set-value-for-groupSay I want to set multiple custom attributes within a single workflow. I need to make as many API calls as there are attributes to update. In my recent work that's four calls which could've been one. This also simplifies developing with the API - don't have to iterate through values along with grokking associated return statuses.
I'm requesting the functionality to update multiple custom attributes with one API call.

Allow Duplicate Key Values for Managed App Configurations
Our application, Redzone and Redzone Admin, allows for App Configurations with the following keys:
- serverURL (string)
- serverDescription (string)There are many customers who have access to multiple server's and therefore would benefit from the ability to push multiple server's to their devices. In most MDM's, we provide our customers with an XML file they can import that makes use of an array to pass multiple sites at once.
SimpleMDM doesn't allow the upload of an PLIST/XML file to achieve this functionality, nor does it allow for duplicate key values and therefore our customers with multiple servers are unable…
18 votesThe ability to upload a custom plist for managed app configurations including duplicate values was added a while back. The "Use custom config plist" option is under the Managed Configurations tab of the App Details page.

Play a sound
From the iCloud interface you are able to play a sound to find your iPhone. I just noticed that the Simple MDM does not list that as an action to preform. I realize you could call the phone, but if the switch is on mute, the ringer will not sound, but I believe the play a sound from iCloud works when the mute switch is enabled.
