What are Managed Apple IDs? — Mobile Mentor
You can now leverage your Azure Active Directory identities to enrol Apple devices
Apple released iOS BYOD User Enrolment and Shared iPads last year. Both these solutions leverage a managed Apple ID to establish a user identity on the device for secure access to company apps and data.
Managed Apple IDs
-
Are owned and managed by an organisation
-
Provide employees access to certain company specific Apple services
-
Are created automatically using federated authentication
-
Can also be used to assign roles within Apple Business Manager
Managed Apple IDs are unique to your company and separate from personal Apple IDs that employees create for themselves.
Managed Apple IDs have less access on a device than a personal Apple ID. Find My, Sidecar, Apple Pay, iCloud mail and family sharing are some of the options not available when using a Managed Apple ID.
Administrators can restrict access to and remove Managed Apple ID accounts via Apple Business Manager.
