As you all know, this week Apple released the new iOS6. In anticipation of this announcement, developers here at Lightspeed Systems already released an update to Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution.
Built specifically for schools, with direct educator input, the updated MDM is compatible and supports all the new features in iOS6—ensuring schools will have a seamless transition.
Mobile devices are changing education and Lightspeed Systems is changing the way these devices are managed. With hierarchical policy settings, education specific tools, and a user-friendly interface, IT staff can efficiently manage mobile devices and educators can ensure the devices foster positive learning experiences. The MDM solution also features application controls, integration with the Apple Volume Purchasing Plan, remote wiping, and centralized inventory, reporting, updates, and installs—making managing the devices as simple as using them.
Updates to the MDM solution that support the new iOS6 include:
- Blocking Access to the Game Center
- Blocking Access to the Bookstore or the Bookstore Erotica category
- Disabling the Photo Stream
- Support for the new Global Proxy
- Single App Mode
With these new features, Mobile Device Management is able to provide Apple iPad users a safe, filtered mobile learning experience. This update supports the our core focuses on empowering transformative education through safe, mobile, collaborative learning.
