7P Mobile Device Management – Client
Version 5.44.00
Important notes
Android 10 devices enrolled via Device Admin mode will be rejected by this client. The combination of Android 10 and
Device Admin enrollment method is – as announced – not supported anymore from Google side, as it leads to issues in
device management. In case you have any questions regarding this topic, please contact the MDM support.
Features

the activation data was sent in the SMS content. This new option supports using a one-time activation code that
must be entered in the MDM client after installation.- The enrollment text can be defined on the server in Settings > Messages
Note: The messages in settings will be overwritten as announced in our newsletter in March. - The email activation also supports this new activation code method.
