Question – For publishing internal apps to Android, are there any best practices? – answered at 7:54.

Question – What’s the best way for an org to support platform SSO for a Mac using Secure Enclave keys in a multi-user environment and can we still offer software on demand (company portal I read isn’t supported for multi-user). – answered at 20:35.
Question – Is there any way to sequence app installs for the MacOS? And / or, is there a way or roadmap for a script that is running on the Mac to call back to Intune to request an app be installed? This would be preferable to having to utilize Azure blob storage. – answered at 24:32.

Question – One major challenge of managing iOS devices in Intune is that using the company portal works fine, but handling both corporate and BYOD devices, especially with SSO, can be particularly tricky. Do you have any tips? – answered at 31:29.
Question – Is it planned to have a way to set and forget minor update for MacOS devices? Right now, we can only set a specific date, which means that we have to monitor those releases and then set/update our current policies with a new date. – answered at 37:02.
Question – Can you share tips on building effective Android device restriction policies in Intune? Not just how, but what types are good to set? – answered at 38:58.

Question – Will device name template for macOS at some point be available outside supervised? – answered at 42:45.
Question – Are there any plans to incorporate "sideloading" of Android apps particularly for Android Enterprise dedicated enrolled devices? There are a number of companies in the manufacturing and warehouse management space where leveraging a managed Google Play store methodology is either not available or flexible enough to support a controlled deployment strategy. – answered at 44:36.
