What’s New in Apple Device Management
Simplified Deployment & Migration

Devices can now automatically discover MDM services during enrollment, and organizations can migrate to new MDM providers without wiping devices.
-
IT teams can move users from on-premise to the cloud, or vice versa, without needing a device reset.
-
Streamline device management, reduce device downtime and enhance flexibility with this update.
Stronger Identity & Access Control

Platform single sign-on (SSO) improvements enable secure tap-to-login, verified SSO extensions and authenticated guest sessions during enrollment and throughout device use, boosting both security and user experience.

These enhancements strengthen security while simplifying access, making it easier for users to log in and for organizations to enforce consistent identity policies.
Enhanced App & Software Management

IT can lock default messaging and calling apps and control app updates with Declarative Device Management (DDM), all while reducing reliance on legacy MDM commands.
