Enrolling Android Work Managed Devices

About this task

Follow these steps to enroll Android work managed devices. If you want to enroll an Android device with a work profile, follow the general Android Plus enrollment steps, ensuring that you select the Android Enterprise device agent.

Note: You must download the Android Enterprise device agent during the initial device setup to activate the device as a work managed device. If the device agent is downloaded after the device setup is complete, the device can only be activated as a work profile or you must factory reset the device and begin again.
