We now support push notifications to devices!
To support push messaging, sign in to DeviceLink and deploy the DeviceLink mobile app to your devices. You can also configure your groups to automatically deploy the app on device enrollment (on by default).
Let us know what you think!

Root CA Certificate Support
Support for Certificates payload. Since we use some internal root CAs, we would like to be able to push those root certs to the device so that our SSL sessions are validated when mobile devices content to https signed with certs issued from that root. This will allow us to continue to use the "disallow untrusted TLS connections".

Include build numbers when you display version numbers
Display the build number for apps that are installed and in the catalogue details.

Allow multiple ipa files to be uploaded in one go, with a progress bar/monitor
This will help speed up the process as you can put all your ipa files in to upload, then carry on with your day. Rather than checking back for when it completes to do the next one.

Device Details Report
Provide for some reporting. It doesn't have to be much but the ability to print all device detail in a single report would do the trick.
7 votesClosing this request since this is available with the Export Devices CSV. If there is something additional you'd like to see implemented, please submit a new suggestion outlining the problem or functionality.

Admin Hierarchy
There should be a hierarchy of admin privileges.
I would suggest adding "Owner" and "Admin" as the account owner should not be able to have an admin revoke their access. There should also be the option to transfer the ownership of the account much like you can with Slack teams.

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.

Support Adding .pkg and .dmg without signing
One of the nice things about Meraki’s SM is the way in which it handles the install of Apps vs SimpleMDM namely:
- You dont need to sign a .pkg
- You can upload a file or specify a URL as the source of the installer (.pkg or .dmg)Having to sign the .pkg is kinda annoying.

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).
7 votesWe 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.

Allow app updates to be (manually) pushed to multiple devices at once
From the Apps->Catalog->Installs screen, add a "Push update" option to the Action menu, letting me push the most recent app binary to multiple devices at once.
At the moment, I have to go via Devices -> Devices -> Apps and update devices one at a time.
My use case is pushing an RC version of the app to c 3-4 manager devices, and then pushing the same/approved version to many more client devices. All at once. (Without having to generate a spurious additional build version and using auto-update during the update binary process).
7 votesThis was added a few years back.

Search option in DEP Info of Automated Enrollment group for device list
Can we get a search field like we have in the Devices list but in the Devices > Enrollments > [enrollment name] > DEP Info > DEP Devices? Right now it is a static list and can only show 20, 50, 1000, or all devices. With over 2000 devices in the list it would be handy to be able to search by Serial Number to determine if the machine is in the list or not. Selecting the “all” option takes a fair amount of time to list all the devices when all I want to know is if the machine…
7 votesThis was added a while back but looks like we forgot to mark it complete. Device search is now possible on DEP Info page.

Webhook for new DEP devices
When a device is added to DEP it would be great to have a webhook notification.
My goal with this is to take that notification and have it create a new asset for the new Mac in our asset management system.
I think the Serial number would be the biggest needed component. I'm not sure what all information you can pull from Apple side, but if possible the order number would be really awesome to have and the date it was added to DEP on Apple's end.
Thanks!

Allow control of the TLSTrustedServerNames field when configuring WiFi certificates
When deploying or upgrading machines to Big Sur, I'm finding a change in behavior vs Catalina, in that when connecting to an 802.1x network, BS devices are asking the user to approve a certificate, where Catalina devices do not. In https://macadmins.slack.com/archives/C016JHNMP1N/p1611939579192200 it is suggested that the 802.1x profile can support the TLSTrustedServerNames field. However, SimpleMDM does not offer this field in the Profiles:Wireless category. I think that having this would address the unwanted dialog. As documented at https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/wifi/eapclientconfiguration , it seems this could be a field you could expose in the certificate management interface?

Rotate Firmware Password option
We would like to use unique firmware password with the option to rotate the password, in case we have to share the password with the user at some point. Currently that would only possible with moving the device to a group without a firmware password, clear the firmware password and assign the device back to the original group.
Maybe there is a possibility like building a mechanism that sends out multiple commands (one to clear the password and one to set it again), which would effectively "rotate" the firmware password.
7 votesThis is now available. Verified firmware passwords can be rotated by clicking the "rotate" icon next to the firmware password field on the Device Details page.

Add Slack universal installer to Shared Apps
I found that Slack has a universal installer available on their website, but only the Intel version is in the Shared Apps library. It would be nice to be able to push the universal version from Shared Apps instead/in addition.
(link here, under the "Distribute Slack" section: https://slack.com/help/articles/360035635174-Deploy-Slack-for-macOS)
Thank you!

Allow password rotations via API
Now that firmware and recovery lock passwords may be rotated via the web interface, it would be great to have that functionality available via the API as well.
