Allow Download of Custom Profiles
It would be great to have the option of downloading previously uploaded mobileconfig files (or even better, edit them in the webinterface).
Normally i prototype profiles in Profile Manager, but since i cannot put every bit of information that is contained in the Profile into it's name, i have no possibility of checking what exactly i am deploying.
A download Option would make troubleshooting/debugging Custom Profiles a lot easier!
Thanks in advance.

I'd love to see tags implemented as a device organizational tool.
Right now we have groups. But device groups is only one way to view your fleet. I'd love if I could also assign tags to devices. Ideally multiple tags. This way I could have tags for things like "remote" or "customer service" or "need2retire". Then I could use a tag or combination of tags to isolate a special group of devices.
Thanks
10 votesWhile not specifically tags, this functionality is now achievable with Dynamic Groups (currently in Preview). Sign up here to have the preview enabled on your account.

Ability to Push Paid Apps
From our community: One big thing we'd like is the ability to push paid apps, which isn't available at this time. Can you add support for app redemption codes through Apple's Volume Purchase Program (VPP)?
9 votesI’m happy to announce that as of today we support paid app distribution and volume purchase codes!
Paid apps now appear in Apple Store search results. Once you have added a paid app, you will have the ability to add codes to it.
As always, thank you for your feedback!

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.
9 votesThis can now be accomplished using custom attributes. Custom attributes can be assigned values at the device group level.

Allow enforcing of Filevault with institutional recovery key.
In Merakis MDM solution it is possible to enforce Filevault across your fleet using an institutional recovery key. Would really really like to see this feature come to SimpleMDM.
9 votesSimpleMDM includes personal key support with escrow. We believe this is a more secure, superior strategy to using a global institutional recovery key.
We hope that this will fit your requirements. If it does not, we welcome your feedback on this request.

Support self-enrollment using directory service credentials
Provide for directory service (AD et al) user authentication information to be used for self-enrollment of devices. The authenticated user information should also be written to the device record so we know that user is tied to the enrolled device.
9 votesPlease see our authentication options under enrollments. If you have a particular use case that is not supported by our current implementation, please create a new ticket with specific information so that we may keep track of the request.

Quick Look App Version Installation
Have a section on the portal which shows each app and version and how many devices are on each.
This would be useful to see how many devices have downloaded the new version of an app.
9 votesThis is available under the App Details > Installs tab.

tvOS - Managed OS Updates
With tvOS 12 adding support for managed OS updates (https://simplemdm.com/2018/06/15/apple-mdm-features-ios-12-macos-10-14/), it would be great if the Install Update icon method could be implemented for tvOS devices (like it currently is for iOS devices in the Device Details page)

Enable deploying apps via the "Managed Update" Munki manifest functionality
I want to be able to update apps on machines enrolled in SimpleMDM without installing those apps, through the SimpleMDM Munki Integration, so that I can patch vulnerabilities on certain machines, but without targeting those machines directly.
This reduces the amount of work I need to do, and if in the future, an employee installs an older, vulnerable version SimpleMDM will update that app, without me installing it on everyone.
9 votesManaged Updates has been added as an install type for Munki app assignment groups.

Add a Log tab to the device detail view
When viewing the Device Details, having a Log tab to have just the log entires for that device readily available would be great. Currently I have to copy the SN, click on the Logs view, paste the serial number and then if I want more device details I have to go back to the device detail.
Having a log view of just that devices activity in the device detail would keep all the device details in one location.

9 votesA "Removable" checkbox option has been added to the System Extensions profile UI to mark each extension as removable (or not). Default state is not removable.

Enable location history
The location tracking feature is great, but there needs to be a history feature so that administrators can see where the device has been in the past.

bulk push VPN account setting to a group device
add the option for bulk push VPN account setting, such as i have 10 vpn service, and now i have add 10 times for each device. i want to push some VPN service to a group device only 1 time.
8 votesVPN accounts can now be assigned at the device group level. If the username and password field values are unique for each device, they can be left blank so that the user is prompted for the values. If you would like to add them as an administrator, custom attributes can be used to create username and password values on a per-device basis.

Allow remote blocking of specific apps for supervised devices
As of iOS 9.3, the Apple Configurator 2 supports blocking individual apps by package name. It would be awesome if this would be possible from SimpleMDM.
8 votesThis feature is available today. Create an app restriction list under Settings > Config and then assign it to groups under the Restrictions tab of group details.
