Network Usage Rules device management payload settings for Apple devices

You can configure the Network Usage Rules payload settings to specify how managed apps use cellular data. You can specify how managed apps use network data for users of an iPhone, iPad, or Shared iPad that enrolls in a device management service.

Managed apps can be restricted on cellular and roaming networks. This forces the app to communicate only through Wi-Fi networks.

  • Supported operating systems and channels: iOS, iPadOS, Shared iPad device.
