Inventory Scan for Installed apps

Hi Everyone, Is there a way that I can force app inventory for MDM/DEP whether Apple or android? The objective is helping my customer to have clear vision on all apps installed in their Corp phones. ...

Intune

Moe_Kinani I don't believe there is a way to update the app inventory on demand. Discovered apps are reporting back correctly in my Intune tenants, as per Microsoft's documentation. This feature needs improvement though.

Moe_Kinani By default, the report of apps should refresh every 7 days from the time of device enrollment.

Note: Android Enterprise Fully Managed and Dedicated do not display discovered apps.

Yes, it doesn’t work as expected though. Thought there is some way to force the inventory!
