Profiles

Profiles in Oxari mobile management are used to configure and apply specific settings to a group of mobile devices. They allow you to define a predefined application, or an environment with limited access to applications, Wi-Fi settings, location, contact management and other aspects of device usage. Profiles enable simplified management of multiple devices, providing uniform security settings and application configurations. They can be assigned to devices under Mobile Management > Devices. Profiles are divided into: Location, WiFi, predefined application, Contacts.

Creating a predefined application profile

To add a predefined application profile in the “Select profile type” window, select the “predefined application” profile and then click the “Select” button.

Oxari's predefined application profile is used to create a restricted environment on mobile devices. The user has access only to selected applications. The predefined application profile allows you to limit the device's operation to only one specific or multiple applications.

Oxari's predefined application mode locks the user into a dedicated application environment, limiting interaction with other parts of the system. With the Home button disabled, the user must perform a special sequence of actions to exit the predefined application, such as pressing the back button repeatedly in rapid succession, which can lead to the display of the Home dashboard or a prompt for the exit password, if one has been set. This process is a safeguard against unauthorized exit from predefined application mode. Restarting the device or using the Home button will not disable predefined application mode, but will restart it, ensuring security continuity.

Fill in the desired fields and then click the “Applications” tab.

Then, to add the desired applications, click the “+” button.

In the “Select allowed application or package” window, select a specific application from the list and click the “Select” button.
