API: Dont send Filevault keys by default from /devices
Separate the device API so it does not return filevault keys with every device object. Or create a filter to omit the keys.
I keep running into scenarios where using the device API means scrubbing file vault keys every single time I make it get request to https://a.simplemdm.com/api/v1/devices
It gets pretty messy downstream especially with logs.8 votes -

Enrollment Setting - Unassign Profiles at Re-Enrollment
We heavily utilize individually assigned profiles for Macs. There are also a few default profiles assigned via group. When a new out-of-box Mac is being enrolled for the first time only those default profiles are installed (around 5). Profiles are installed quickly and reliably. Later on during provisioning our configuration management tool handles installing other required per device profiles.
However, when a Mac from stock is being re-enrolled to be used by another person, every previously assigned profile is installed at setup assistant. Since in my case those individually assigned profiles are usually per user, team, department, etc. and no…

Sort the Scripts -> Jobs -> History tab by newest to oldest by default
Right now, the sorting is by name (I think?) which is not useful. It would be great to show the most recently queued jobs in the history first by default.

API endpoint to request an updated location
We would like to use the API to do automatic location audits, however the location is often not as up to date as we would like. An API endpoint that mirrors the "update" button on the device map would be very helpful!

Disable iOS power button
Allow the iPhone power button to be disabled so that the device can't be powered down if lost or stolen.
I'm aware that for now, this functionality is only available in jailbroken devices running Cydia tweaks, but it would be an awesome enhancement to have in the future.7 votes -
Implement a self enrolment portal for end users
I would like to be able to get users to simply enrol in SimpleMDM through a URL, similar to JAMFnow enrolment portal.
This is a very simple way to boost enrolment on user side and allows administrators to easily enrol devices on the go. No longer remembering long enrolment URLs.
JAMFnow workflow
User goes to company.jamfnow.com
User is provided with dropdown list of available groups to enrol in
User is prompted for first name and last name
User is asked to enter a passcode (set by admin)
User clicks enrol and is now provided with relevant profileMust have features:…

import a CSV containing device information for enrollment
We would like to see the ability to upload a CSV exported from our previous mobile device manager to send mass text messages with a group enrollment link.
Use Case: We currently have about 400 devices in the field that need to be remotely enrolled.
This is low priority, we will use the QR code to enroll all of the devices just fine. This is just an improvement suggestion for the future.7 votes -

Make Lock PIN #s / Filevault Recovery Keys Available Via the API
Same logic as Filevault Keys. Make them available via API.
Bonus points if the new API copes could limit access to PINs/ FV keys.

Allow sorting/filtering on the Device Details > Apps page
It would be very helpful to be able to sort the Apps list on Device details by discovered date. Additionally, it would be helpful to have a filter field to isolate a batch of apps that match the criteria.

Specify package install order on joining an app assignment group
I can see that this request has been marked completed:
and I've tested the package order stuff in our environment - and it works really well... but ONLY for pre-stage setups. And they don't always work.
So - if an end user needs to manually enrol a device either via an enrolment link or a
sudo profiles -Ncommand to re-trigger an automated enrolment then all that awesome install logic disappears, and the packages get installed in what seems to be a random order. As Eric says in that feature request:"Some vendors supply their products as multiple packages…

Collect RAM inventory data
Hello,
We would like to see the amount of RAM a computer has from within SMDM, within each device inventory and on the Device tab as an extra column.
Our team is looking to refresh hardware, and RAM is the main criteria, but we are unable to gather this data, and everymac.com information is not accurate.
Note that this feature request is separate from the "report on mac model, installed ram and cpu type," because we are not looking to access the data via API.

Support per admin user time zone settings
Under Account > Settings > Time zone an admin can set the global time zone for their entire SimpleMDM instance. This is the timestamp used in logs, enrollment date, etc.
I'd like the ability for each admin user to set their own time zone as well. Having a per account setting is a small quality of life change which makes it easier to grok events. I prefer to read timestamps in my local time. Time data itself should not change, only what's presented to the user.
