Deploying SOTI Surf to Devices Using App Policies

Deploy the SOTI Surf app to Android and iOS devices using an app policy for easier updates through official app stores.

Before you begin

Your devices must be on Android 4.2 or later or iOS 8 or later.

About this task

SOTI recommends using an app policy to deploy SOTI Surf to your devices, so that they receive app updates through the Apple App and Google Play stores.
Tip: If app policy-based deployments are not available in your environment due to security concerns or other reasons, you can deploy SOTI Surf to Android devices using packages. See Deploying the SOTI Surf App to Devices Using Packages.

To push SOTI Surf to enrolled devices:

Procedure

  1. Create an app policy for the required platform. See Using App Policies.
    • Managed Google Play Apps or SOTI ONE apps for Android Enterprise devices.
    • App Store for iOS devices.
  2. Save and assign the app policy to your target devices.

Results

SOTI Surf installs on the selected devices according to your settings. However, device users cannot use SOTI Surf until they configure the SOTI Surf application settings. See Configuring the SOTI Surf Application.
