Create a shared iPad group

  1. In the management console, on the menu bar, click Dedicated devices > Shared iPad groups.
  2. Click The Add icon.
  3. Type a name and description for the shared iPad group.
  4. Type the username for device activation.
  5. To assign an app or app group, in the Assigned apps section, click The Add icon and do the following:
    1. Search for and select the app that you want to assign to the group.
    2. Click Next.
    3. In the Disposition drop-down list, select one of the following:
      • Required: Install the app automatically on devices and prevent users from uninstalling the app.
      • Optional: Allow users to install and uninstall the app.
    4. If you are assigning an Apple VPP app, and you set the Disposition to required or optional, in the Update Mode drop-down list, click the appropriate option:
      • Default: When a new version of the app is available, it will be pushed to devices automatically.
      • Postpone: When a new version of the app is available, it will not be pushed to devices automatically.
    5. For iOS devices, to assign per-app VPN settings to an app or an app group, in the Per app VPN drop-down list, select the settings to associate with the app or app group.
    6. If you assign an iOS or OS X app, choose the appropriate value in the Target drop-down list:
      • Work: The app is installed as a work app that you manage with UEM.
      • Personal:
        • If it is not a VPP app, the app is managed by UEM and a “personal” label is associated with the assigned app in the management console. The personal label does not impact how the app is managed on devices.
        • If it is a VPP app with the Disposition set to Optional, the user will be redirected to the App Store to install the app as unmanaged. Unmanaged apps cannot be removed from devices by UEM and are not subject to UEM controls such as IT policy rules. When you set the app assignment as Optional and Personal, you are prompted to assign the appropriate VPP user license to devices so it can be treated as an unmanaged app. You must set “Assign license to” to “User” to make it an unmanaged app.
    7. If available, in the App configuration drop-down list, click the app configuration that you want to assign to the app.
    8. Click Assign.
  6. Click Save.
