Company-owned devices for work and personal use
Setting up a company-owned device with a work profile enables the device for both work and personal use. On company-owned devices with work profiles:
- Most app, data, and other management policies apply to the work profile only.
- The employee's personal profile remains private. However, enterprises can enforce certain device-wide policies and personal usage policies.
- Enterprises can use Block scope to enforce compliance actions on an entire device or only its work profile.
- Device disenrolling and device commands apply to an entire device.
To set up a company-owned device with a work profile, use one of the following provisioning methods (ensure that the enrollment token has Personal usage set to Allowed):
