Android: Protect SMC client from being uninstalled
Sophos Samsung Plugin is well protected from being uninstalled by the user (can not be unticked from within the device admin menu). Is there a chance to carry this protection over to the SMC client?

Find a way to sensible shorten the filenames in SSW
With corporate documents, you upload corporate documents and make it available in SSW. For docs with longer file names, the names might be shorted to a point, where they are no longer sensemaking.
Please implement a way to shorten in a reasonable way and/or to show the full name per user action0 votes -
Report IP Address of Mobile Devices
Add IP address as one of the device properties visible within Sophos Mobile Control. We would then know if the devices were connected to our internal wifi network or offsite.

It would be beneficial to be able to trace by which Apple ID, the ipad’s are registered with.
We use Sophos MDM for iPads and androids. We would like a feature where we can trace and ensure that iPads are registered with GEH Email address. This will help in resetting the device if user leaves. Thanks.

Do not autoscan SD cards on boot unless requested
Every time I boot my device the external SD card is scanned automatically, which is quite annoying as it contains some 55 gigabytes of mp3 files. An option to scan external and/or internal SD cards only on demand would be highly appreciated. Maybe as a notification in the notification bar, "scan now / skip scan".

Show the restrictions, which are applied due to a compliance violation
If a device gets out of compliance, very common the company applies some automatic restrictions, like blocking email, blocking network access or blocking access to company documents. But this is not shown to the user in the SMC app.
Please extend the app to show, if those restrictions have been applied this particular device0 votes -
Disabling Notifications
On behalf of a customer:
They would like to remove certain notifications for App-Block.
Currently one can change the setting for all notifications.
Settings -->Application Manager ---> Sophos Mobile Control and unchecking the show notifications box.
Doing so would disable all notifications.
For an effective App-Block Sophos has already stated a need to ensure that the Process is not killed by a task manager.
Due to the sticky notification the process needed cannot be killed effectively.Another advantage is that the user does not forget about the block.
E.g.: the blocked app is installed 6 months after the app was…7 votes -
Streamline App Protection password input when I open a protected app
Currently, when the App Protection password screen pops up, I have to (1) tap once to bring up the keyboard, (2) type the password, then (3) tap OK to open the protected app. Any way to eliminate (1) and (3) to streamline? I.e., when the App Protection screen pops up, so does the keyboard; when the password is identified as correct--rather than redundantly "OK'ed,"--the app just opens? Two keystrokes eliminated, but it would speed up phone use considerably! Thanks!

Start Activity or Service remotly
Hi,
Like Tasker, it would be interesting to configure some actions in profile to start Activity or Service on clients remotly.
Example: Click on "Start Chrome" on SMC console -> push message to SMC client -> start Chrome via a Intent.
Thanks in advance,

Enable encypted SMTP for use with Gmail
A lot of companies are using Gmail for their email solution. Gmail requires a TL S connection over port 465 for SMTP to allow encryption of traffic. There is no option to use TLS in Sophos Mobile Control, which is a feature I think should be added.

Allow 'X' number of Apps per User
SMC should allow 'X' number of Apps per User. With Exception of the Apps in the Blacklist, alls Apps can be installed.
For example Setting the maximum number off allowed Apps to 20 will block App Installation once 20 Apps have been installed by the user.
