Deploying SOTI Surf to Devices Using App Policies
About this task
SOTI recommends that you use an app policy to deploy SOTI Surf to your devices, so they can easily receive app updates through the Apple App and Google Play stores. However, if that is not possible for your environment due to security concerns or other reasons, you can deploy SOTI Surf to Android devices using a package.
The SOTI Surf app is compatible with Android devices running 4.0 or later and iOS devices running 8.0 or later.
To push the SOTI Surf app to your enrolled devices:
Procedure
-
Create an app policy.
- For Android devices, select Google Play Store Applications
- For Android devices with work features enabled, select Managed Google Play Applications
- For iOS devices, select App Store Applications
- Assign and push the SOTI Surf profile configuration to your devices if you have not already done so.
- Activate the app policy.
Results
The SOTI Surf app will be installed on the selected devices according to your settings. However, devices users cannot use SOTI Surf until the SOTI Surf profile configuration has been configured.
