Here you can upload the Android Apps that your company has developed and distribute them later in Mobile Management in device or group profiles.

Please be aware that we advice to only distribute Apps this way, which are not available in the Google Play Store.

Click on the “+” to upload the APK of an App you want to upload. Only the APK format is currently supported.

The upload limit on OnPremise Appliances can be increased in Step 3 of the Appliance Configuration. If you would like to increase the Upload Limit on Cloud, please contact the support for more information.

Be aware that usually APKs are a bit smaller than their content. It is possible that an upload fails due to this, since the APK is unpacked in the process. E.g. it is possible that a 95MB APK fails with an 100MB upload limit. In this case, increase the upload limit as mentioned above.

We also advice to first manually move the APK to one test device (e.g. via USB) and try to install it manually with the Files app of the device. If this does not work for any reason, it will also fail via MDM.

Update Target

With the „Update Target“ feature you can choose which version of an app should be installed or to which version an app should be updated if you activated „Keep up to date“ for an app.

If you have not selected an Update Target, the highest version will be used.

Keep in mind that Android cannot downgrade apps. Also be aware that the “Version Code” determines whether or not a version is higher, lower or the same. So get sure to correctly increase this version in your app when building an update.
