Securing the Remote Workforce with UEM Software
In organizations today, employees not only use company devices to access sensitive work-related data, but also personal devices. Some companies don’t even issue company devices, but instead, follow the bring your own device (BYOD) approach to save on hardware costs. Also, employees use a wide variety of operating systems (OS), such as Windows OS, macOS, IoS, Android, and different web OS.

Question on: Esper
What strategies have you come up with when dealing with multiple devices that require multiple versions of APKs? How do I successfully pull XAPK from devices?
It seems that app releases are constantly changing which is normally handled by the Play Store. I know about pulling the APK from specific devices after the app has been installed. Pulling XAPK from devices has not gone so well
Hi John,
You can create different groups on Esper platform based on the different versions of apps you want to install. You can view the entire details like which version is installed on which device and groups from App management directly. Alternatively you can use our APIs to write a custom install command with different version of app to be installed based on the serial number or Esper ID.
For pulling xapk from the devices, you can install applications like apkextractor and pull the files. For this to be work you can enable the adb from Esper dashboard and pull it locally.
For more details you can send us email at support@esper.io and we can help you.
Thanks

When dealing with multiple devices that require multiple versions of APKs (Android Application Packages), it can be challenging to manage and distribute the correct versions. Here are some strategies you can consider:
Version Control: Use a version control system like Git to manage different versions of your APKs. You can easily download https://actiongamesking.com/stumble-guys-mod-apk-4/ to check this. Create branches or tags for each version to keep track of changes and easily switch between different releases.
Build Automation: Implement a build automation system like Jenkins or Gradle to streamline the process of building and deploying APKs. This can help ensure consistent and efficient build processes across multiple devices.
Continuous Integration and Deployment (CI/CD): Set up a CI/CD pipeline to automatically build and deploy APKs to your devices. This allows for quick and reliable distribution of the latest versions to multiple devices.
Device Provisioning: Use a mobile device management (MDM) solution to provision and manage your devices remotely. This can help in installing, updating, and removing APKs from multiple devices simultaneously.
Over-the-Air (OTA) Updates: Implement an OTA update mechanism within your application to enable seamless updates without requiring manual intervention. This can help in distributing and updating the latest APK versions across devices.
When it comes to pulling XAPK (Expansion APK) files from devices, it can be more challenging compared to regular APKs. XAPK files contain additional data files (e.g., OBB files) that may be required by the application. Here are a few options to consider:
Android Debug Bridge (ADB): You can use ADB commands to pull XAPK files from connected devices. The command would typically involve specifying the path to the XAPK file on the device and the destination path on your local machine.
Third-Party Tools: There are third-party tools available that can assist in extracting XAPK files from devices. These tools often provide a graphical interface to make the process easier and more user-friendly.
File Explorers: Some file explorer apps available on the Play Store have the ability to access the device's storage and extract XAPK files. These apps typically require root access on the device to perform such operations.
Remember that extracting XAPK files from devices might require additional permissions or device-specific configurations, so ensure that you have the necessary access and privileges on the devices you are working with.

Question on: Jamf
How do use patch management for multiple applications?
I would like to push Adobe Flash Player, Chrome and Firefox to the same users at the same time.
Jamf patch requires two things one is patience, and the second is for every app you want to push; you are going to have to download, configure, and upload each app to JAMF admin. When you install, remember it's immediate, so start with a test group before pushing the software to everyone in your organization.
JAMF has policies you can make and send to Specific devices, Groups of devices or Users. JAMF lets you create Smart Groups or Static Groups. These groups can pinpoint only devices as detailed as in one building, that has a specific iOS installed, and in a specific Department. When you make packages you can send it to a test device to make sure it works. Once it does you can then send it out. JAMF has in place you can let the user decide when to do this or you can force it to be done. They also have great tech support to help you out. They also have resources online so you can read how to do this on your own.
With JAMF Pro you can make distribution groups. JAMF has one being a static group and the other a smart group. Static group for any user or device per criteria. I use smart groups for any software that needs to be specific. For example if one version of Chrome doesn't work with a specific OS I can state it only going to those devices with specific OS not to cause any conflicts. Once you have your groups made then you make the Packages for each. Testing out of course first to make sure they work. Scope it to the group and it gets pushed out.
JAMF has it so you can have specific triggers and Execution Frequency.
It can Trigger upon set up, login logout, Network state Change, Enrollment completion, Recuriing Check in, and Custom.
Execution: One per computer, Once per use per computer, once a day, once a week etc.
