How to update managed Apps for iOS device
Dear forum members, Our VPP token is configured to turn off the Auto-update in the Intune for managed Apps. So how do you push out an app update if there is one? In the Airwatch, you could just select the App and it will show you all the devices that have the managed app installed, with the app version for each device. If you want to update the App, just select the devices and click update the App. I don't seem to have the equivalent settings in Intune. Thanks.
Issue with VPP apps automatic updates.
Dear Colleagues, We have enabled user based License for VPP Apps and enabled auto update option in Apple VPP token. As per the MS Document User based license will take local App store settings configuration. That cannot be managed by the Intune admin. But Now also VPP applications are getting updated automatically over Mobile Data even when the user licensing has been set in the assignment and Mobile Data is disabled in Automatic Downloads within the device settings. Below article was followed. How to manage iOS and macOS apps purchased through Apple Volume Purchase Program with Microsoft Intune: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/vpp-apps-ios__;!!JTSHVUr6R1OOzg!dfyaVT7rtm80uv83d-XKrEgj6D6mzcb30aipI-b14LDsGngu4wEJwDUuhv1mtG0mzLanfDltmg$.

apple vpp token status assigned to external mdm
I have been using Intune for years with no other MDM provider in the mix. Today, out of nowhere I notice that my VPP token says "apple vpp token status assigned to external mdm". The ONLY recent thing that I have done is set some applications to NOT update automatically. I know that simply grabbing back control is the easiest, but curious if anyone else has seen this recently. Thanks, Justin
macOS VPP apps fail to deploy, "License not eligible for device assignment" (Monterey)
Hello, Our macOS VPP apps sometimes fail to deploy, when using Intune/Microsoft Endpoint manager for app deployment. Symptoms: - All deployed VPP apps missing from computer - VPP apps may be deploying fine for another computer, running the same or different os version - Running sync for problem computer may or may not trigger app install from the App Store - From macOS console log, triggering sync provides some interesting errors (Pages app installation): error 15:51:41.985744+0200 appstored AMSURLSession: [___/com.apple.iWork.Pages:___] Protocol completed with error.

Hi folks, i've experienced a problem while using iOS BYOD devices with user driven user enrollment method. If the user never used the managed apple-id before, he's going to be prompted to acknowlegde the popup to agree that the company is assigning apps via VPP. Because of the assignment of a few more apps (targeted "required"), the user will be annoyed with 5, 6 or 7 popups, which are coming up faster, than the user can click (and read 😉 the terms). Do you guys have any idea on how to deal with that? Of course i could target all the apps as available an not required, but i think that is not ideal.
Mixing VPP Licensing
Hello! Wanted to ask for some ideas/suggestions on a following situation. We have started to enroll our iOS devices as fully managed through ABM into Intune. Overall things work great and we managed to deploy everything needed. Apps are device licensed and pushed through Company Portal. However we are currently looking into allowing work profile for a group of users and this we are doing via user enrollment with user selecting personal device. The issue we are running into is mixing license types for the same app. For example: User A will use a fully managed device with all apps available + work profile allowing for a small subset of apps. As per our understanding fully managed devices require device based app licensing while apps deployed through user enrolled devices have user based licensing. The problem is that in intune it is not possible to assign the same user (group) with two types of licensing for the same app, namely device for fully managed and user for work profile scenario. We have also tried with multiple groups, fiddled with required vs. available (with all limitations), and also tried with filters depending on ownership type. None of it did the trick. Did maybe someone have something similar? Any feedback is more than welcome! Thank you very much!How to deal with pre installed iOS app
Hi, This is my situation. All the iOS devices (iPad's) are DEP registered. I have also configured VPP for deploying apps. The customer don't want to use personal Apple ID's. We have setup a federation between Azure AD and Apple. So users can use their AAD account as Apple ID. But, the accounts are business account, so it's not possible to install apps with this account. So far, so good. Users can't install unwanted apps on the iPads. We can buy apps with Apple VPP and deploy it to iOS devices. But now the real world. The iPads are preinstalled with software. Apps like, Contacts, Podcast, Measure, etc. But not all the apps are installed, most apps try to install them self. When that happens, the apps are asking for an Apple ID, because the apps are not deployed with the VPP. My first reaction was to "buy" the apps in VPP. But the Contacts app is not available in VPP. How can I avoid this?
