Using the Enterprise App Store

The Enterprise App Store lets you upload and manage Enterprise and SOTI Snap applications to deploy them to your devices using app policies.

The Enterprise App Store provides a hub to manage Enterprise and SOTI Snap applications for deployment through app policies. Enterprise applications can be uploaded directly to SOTI MobiControl for use on Android, Apple (iOS, MacOS and tvOS) and Windows Modern devices. SOTI Snap applications for Android devices can also be managed after deployment through an app policy.

Access the Enterprise App Store by navigating to Policies > Apps from the SOTI MobiControl main menu, and selecting the Enterprise App Store button in the top-right corner of the App Policies view.

For more details on uploading enterprise applications to SOTI MobiControl. See Uploading a New Enterprise Application.

SOTI Snap Apps

SOTI MobiControl manages SOTI Snap applications deployed through app policies in the Enterprise App Store. When an app policy that includes SOTI Snap applications deploys to devices, the applications appear in the SOTI Snap Apps window where you can perform updates and other management tasks.
Note: For more details about deploying SOTI Snap applications in SOTI MobiControl. See Deploying SOTI Snap Applications | Android Enterprise.
SOTI Snap Apps panel
SOTI MobiControl periodically checks for application updates when synchronized with SOTI Snap. When a new version synchronizes, its number appears as the Available Version. Select Update to install the latest version of the SOTI Snap application and apply it to all associated app policies.
Important: SOTI Snap applications stay on their current version until you manually update them by selecting Update.
