Mobile@Work features and enhancements

This release includes the following new features and enhancements.

  • Support for an enhanced enterprise registration: Device users no longer have to manually launch Mobile@Work when registering device in Work Profile on Company Owned Device mode. Registration is now prompted during the setup wizard. This also applies when registering a fully-managed device using a QR code, Zero Touch, or Knox Mobile Enrollment

    Additionally, the decision to provision as a fully-managed device or a Work Profile on Company Owned Device is now based on the configuration distributed by Core. The workProfileEnabled flag, used for Zero Touch or Knox Mobile Enrollment, is no longer required and is ignored, if specified. The provisioning mode selection has been removed in Provisioner 1.11.0 and is ignored if specified when using an older version.

  • Support of device mutual authentication certificate subject creation: Mobile@Work client can now generate client mutual authentication certificate with an arbitrary subject provided by Core.

  • Android 5.0 deprecated: Devices running any Android 5.0 and older versions will not be able to install Mobile@Work for Android 11.2.0.0 or newer versions.

Wear OS watch app features and enhancements

This section summarizes new features and enhancements related to the Wear OS  watch app that requires and pairs with the latest version of Mobile@Work for Android.

This release does not include features and enhancements for the Wear OS watch app.

Mobile Threat Defense features

Mobile Threat Defense (MTD) protects managed devices from mobile threats and vulnerabilities affecting device, network, and applications. For information on MTD-related features, as applicable for the current release, see the Mobile Threat Defense Solution Guide for Core for your platform, available under the MOBILE THREAT DEFENSE section on the Ivanti Product Documentation page.

Each version of the MTD guide contains all Mobile Threat Defense features that are currently fully tested and available for use on both server and client environments. Because of the gap between server and client releases, new versions of the MTD guide are made available with the final release in the series when the features are fully functional.
