    Feature this App in the Apps@Work catalog

    By default, the check box is selected to list the app in the Featured apps list in Apps@Work. This feature does not apply to AppConnect apps.

    Allow app downloads over insecure networks

    Select this if you are providing an Override URL (next field) that uses the HTTP URL scheme instead of HTTPS.

    Override URLs are intended for use behind a firewall, using a trusted and secure internal network. Before you use an HTTP URL, make sure you understand the risks of using an insecure connection.

    Override URL

    If you are using an alternate source for downloading in-house apps, enter that URL here. The URL must point to the in-house app in its alternate location.

    Override URLs are intended for use behind a firewall, using a trusted and secure internal network. Manual synchronization is required with the alternate HTTP server on which app are stored.

    See Override for in-house app URLs for the requirements for this configuration before using it.

    Application Enrollment Token (AET)

    The app enrollment token for Apps@Work enables companies to publish and distribute apps directly to Windows Phone devices (WP8.1) and bypassing the Windows Store. Companies can install in-house apps after they enroll their phones for app distribution from their company, then users who are enrolled for app distribution can install the company apps.

    Silent Upgrade / Install
    • Clearing the check box means the device user will need to manually install the app. When the check box is cleared, the Schedule Installation field disappears.

    For more information, see Silent install and uninstall of mandatory apps.

    Silent install is not supported for MAM-only Android devices.
