StuartK73 Yes, to prevent the removal of the MDM profile ensure that Locked Enrollment is enabled for the enrollment profile you create for your DEP devices in Intune. The erase all content and settings option on the device can be blocked in the General section of an iOS restrictions profile (requires supervised iOS devices).

Superb, thanks, and what about Location Services? Can the users be prevented from turning this OFF?
Info appreciated

StuartK73 Not to my knowledge.
- StuartK73Oct 17, 2019Iron ContributorHmmm, not the answer I was expecting.
Scenario I seen lately:
Phone is managed, user turns location services off, user then reports phone lost and gets irrate when IT can't locate it.
So, I guess the question is, what can be done, especially via DEP / Configurator to ensure that the phone can always be located?

StuartK73 This setting cannot be managed by an MDM. Apple has not made it available.
