MANAGED SETTINGS configurations

Default behaviour heads-up

Out of the box, MANAGED SETTINGS comes with no restrictions set on available settings offered. Without any configuration, the application will allow access to all supported Settings activity intents.

The following configurations are available for MANAGED SETTINGS:

Network and connectivity

#
Settings intent Description Type Intent Default
Network & Internet Mobile, Wi-Fi, & hotspot settings combined Boolean WIRELESS_SETTINGS True
Wi-Fi Add & connect to known networks Boolean WIFI_SETTINGS True
Mobile network Configure roaming & data settings Boolean NETWORK_OPERATOR_SETTINGS True
APN Configure SIM APN settings Boolean APN_SETTINGS True
VPN Create & connect to VPN connections Boolean VPN_SETTINGS True
Bluetooth Connect to & manage peripherals Boolean BLUETOOTH_SETTINGS True

Note:

  • APN is often OEM-customised. The intent provided has been developed to attempt multiple approaches, but it may not work correctly on your managed estate.
  • Mobile network options may crash if no SIM/Profile is present. A future release will attempt to detect and appropriately disable unsupported intents.

Please test before deployment, and feed back with findings.
