Creating and managing shared device groups

If you want to allow multiple users to share an

iOS

device, you can create a shared device group. You can configure settings for the group that are specific to each user or the same for all users. When you create a shared device group,

BlackBerry UEM

creates a local user account that owns the shared device group.

To check out a device, users can use either local or

Microsoft Active Directory

authentication. You can customize the terms of use that users must accept when they check out a shared device. When they check in the device, it is available for the next user. Shared devices are managed by

UEM

during the check-out and check-in process.

This feature was designed for supervised devices with the following configuration:

App lock mode enabled
VPP apps assigned

This feature does not support

BlackBerry Dynamics

apps. The same

BlackBerry Dynamics

profile must be assigned to the user account that owns the shared device group and to the shared device group itself. You must verify that the "Enable

UEM Client

to enroll in

BlackBerry Dynamics

" option is not selected in the profile.
