Enterprise customers typically use Mobile Device Managers (MDMs) to manage the configuration of their iPads and to deploy the NoahFace App.
Single App Mode (SAM) in iPadOS is essentially the same as Guided Access Mode in that it ensures that only a single App can run and users cannot close it, minimise it, or delete it. If you are deploying the NoahFace App via an MDM you should enforce Single App Mode for the NoahFace App as a setting in the device profile.
iPadOS will not update the NoahFace App when it is running in Single App Mode, so, the general approach to updating the NoahFace App that is being deployed via an MDM is to periodically:
The exact process will be specific to the MDM product you are using - so please consult your MDM documentation and/or support team for specific advice.
The vast majority of settings in the NoahFace App can be centrally managed using the NoahFace Dashboard in a Web browser. However, settings related to the Camera, Facial Recognition, and Liveness Detection, can only be configured locally in the NoahFace App or using a Mobile Device Manager (MDM). To configure these settings within your MDM you must ensure the NoahFace App is Managed (ie: it is deployed by the MDM) and you then define these settings as a set of key/value pairs in the Managed Configuration for the NoahFace App. The available settings are listed below:
The activation code can be managed using a Mobile Device Manager (MDM) by setting:
This allows you to connect the NoahFace App to specific Access Points without using QR Codes or distributing activation links to your devices.
The following Camera settings can be managed using a Mobile Device Manager (MDM):
The following Facial Recognition settings can be managed using a Mobile Device Manager (MDM):
The following Liveness Detection settings can be managed using a Mobile Device Manager (MDM):
The mechanism to apply the App Configuration for the NoahFace App is different within each MDM vendor's product. Instructions for some popular MDMs are provided below to get you started. If you use another MDM or you have more detailed questions on how to apply settings within your MDM product, you should consult your MDM vendor's documentation or contact their support team.
Under Apps / App Configuration Policies, Add a Managed Devices policy, provide a name, select the Platform, and a select the NoahFace App as the Targeted App:
Then select the Configurations Setting Format of Use Configuration Designer and simply define the list of keys, format, and values you want:
From your list of Apps, select the NoahFace App and then select App Configuration as follows:
You then need to create an XML file containing the list of keys and values you want to configure using the provided template - for example:
Finally, you can load this XML file and save your App Configuration:
Select the NoahFace App and then select Managed Configuration. Simply define the list of keys and the values you want - noting that this can also include variables (enclosed within double curly braces) that you can provide a value for for each device:
Firstly, add the NoahFace App to your list of managed Apps:
You then need to create an XML file containing the list of keys and values you want to configure (in "plist" format) - for example:
Then select the NoahFace App and select Configurations. From this page you can load the XML file as your App Configurations and adjust the settings if needed under Configuration Details:
