Before iOS 7… The Apple ID that was used to purchase

Before iOS 7…

The Apple ID that was used to purchase an

app or to redeem a VPP (Volume Purchasing Program) code owned that app for time and all eternity.
Now, you can assign and revoke apps with Supervision in Apple Configurator or with an MDM solution like Meraki
Apple ID’s can’t be deleted or merged. Still true.
Are apps an asset or a commodity? Do you care who ‘owns’ the apps?
No longer an issue if you use Configurator &/or an MDM

New iOS 7 ‘Powers’

A new Setup tab in Prepare, which provides

options such as:
Enroll multiple unsupervised devices in MDM without tapping each device
Complete setup assistant and enroll Apple TV in MDM without using the remote
Improved UI for installing a single profile on unsupervised devices.
Addresses an issue that could cause one redemption code to be lost when importing a Volume Purchase Plan spreadsheet.
A new "Allow devices to connect to other Macs" option that allows supervised devices to sync photos and videos with other Macs.

The Biggest Change??

Once assigned, and if managed properly, an app no

longer belongs forever to the Apple ID it was assigned to.
Apps can now be assigned and revoked at will with both local management and Mobile Device Management (MDM).
Deploying Apps with an MDM is a breeze.

Ownership Models -
A Thing of the Past

Used to be that

before you really ever purchased iPads for your school/district, you had to do a lot of planning and thinking…
The biggest question was, “Who will ‘own’ the apps?”
Your answer drove you toward one of 3 deployment app ownership models:
Personal Ownership
Institutional Ownership
Layered Ownership

Notes on
Deployment Strategies

Create new email accounts to be used to

create Apple ID’s that are tied to a device or department, unless you treat apps as a commodity.
These ID’s can be easily transferred to someone else when the device or manager moves on
For example, pchs.math.apps@pchs.org

Apple ID’s can be created without a credit

card associated with it

Can feed the account with VPP credit or gift cards

As long as that account has not been used for an Apple ID before

Apple Configurator can be used in several different ways

to make configuration and deployment of iOS devices within your organization both easy and efficient.
Can be used to Prepare, Supervise, or Assign iOS devices

Deployment Tools

Apple Configurator - Prepare?
You can prepare a set of new

iOS devices that are configured only once and then deployed to users.
Update devices to the latest version of iOS, install configuration profiles and apps, enroll the devices with your organization’s Mobile Device Management solution, and then hand them out.
Preparing devices is a great deployment option for enterprises and schools that provide iOS devices to employees or students for day-to-day use
Слайд 13

Deployment Tools Apple Configurator - Supervise? You can supervise a set

Deployment Tools

Apple Configurator - Supervise?
You can supervise a set of iOS

devices that you want to control and configure on an ongoing basis.
Apply a configuration to each device, and then reapply it after each use simply by reconnecting the device back to Apple Configurator.
Supervision is an ideal option for sharing devices among students in a classroom or a lab or teachers in a school.
VPP Apps can be assigned and revoked with Supervised devices with iOS 7
Слайд 14

Deployment Tools

Apple Configurator - Assign?
You can assign supervised devices to specific

users in your organization
Check out a device to a user and restore the user’s backup (and data!) to that device; then check the device back in and back up the user’s data for later use, possibly on a different device
Works well in educational settings where students need to work with the same data and documents over time, regardless of which device they’re given

Notes on Configurator

After selecting apps for installation, you MUST check the

box next to each app to automatically install them once you have connected it to 'Prepare' it for deployment. 
With iOS 7 and Configurator 1.4.x, updates and app installation/removal no longer requires a password for every app on every device!

Configurator Notes

To install VPP apps and not burn one of the

installation codes on the Mac running Apple Configurator, and If you do not already have a copy of the app on your computer, use the first redemption code in your spreadsheet to purchase it in iTunes. After using this code, re-download the spreadsheet and import it into Apple Configurator again. This allows Apple Configurator to automatically reassign this code to one of your devices.
When I tried to Prepare my first device (with Supervision enabled so that I can add/remove installed apps), I had an error stating that it could not continue because Find My iPad was enabled on the device. Good for security and stolen devices! More information on this here. Find My iPad can be reinstalled and enabled, but it will need to be disabled if you want to Prepare it again for another use. App updates from Configurator still work!
Слайд 18

Configurator Notes

Once a device has been Prepared with Supervision enabled, the

devices now show up in the Supervise tab.
First device I prepared, after an iOS update, had me go through a few setup screens even though I told it to skip them all. However, they were very simple questions that any end user could answer: choose the language and country, select which of the pre-configured WIFI networks to join, and tap Get Started. That’s it!
When installing apps, if you have installed (paid or free) apps under multiple Apple ID’s, you need to authorize all of the Apple ID’s in iTunes (Store menu —> Authorize This Computer…)

Configurator Notes

When I pushed out 5 apps (4 free, one paid

with VPP Code), NO APPLE ID PASSWORD WAS REQUIRED! HUGE improvement!
Now, to revoke a paid app, I just uncheck it in it’s installed app list (in the Supervision area) and click Apply. The app is uninstalled and the VPP code is now available for other devices. To install the VPP app(s) on another device, just check the box next to it, click Apply and it’s done. Another HUGE improvement!

This may be as close to magic as I’ve seen

in this whole process, once it’s all set up…
You must have a VPP Manager account with 2-step verification enabled (3-day waiting period?)
Add that VPP account to your MDM, with a VPP Service Token, downloaded from the Apple VPP Store
Invite any/all needed Apple ID’s to participate. An email is sent with a verification link to click.
That’s about it for the setup. Explicit Instructions here.

Apple VPP: What is it?

This is the main and best way

to purchase apps, in small or large quantities, for your school or district iOS devices.
All purchasing of VPP apps are done at the VPP site, and not in iTunes. http://volume.itunes.apple.com/store
Most apps have a volume discount, where if you buy 20+ licenses at a time, you receive a 50% discount on each license.
This program is an opt-in for developers, so not all available apps are discounted in volume.

Apple VPP: What is it?

Books from the iBooks store, including textbooks,

can be purchased with the VPP. Mac apps too!
Not all apps are included in the VPP. They must be education or business related. No Angry Birds!
Apps can be purchased using PO’s, PayPal, VPP Credit from the online Apple Education Store or institutional credit cards.
Can search the VPP store by app name or URL

For content control - principals, curriculum managers, teachers

After Purchase of Apps

Go to the iTunes Store, and

click the 'Redeem' option. Enter the code, and the app is downloaded and will be installed the next time the device syncs.
Or, you can use the clickable redemption links and avoid iTunes download and sync
!!! Copies of apps should be purchased for every device, but only one code is redeemed, then synced to all devices. PF needs to mark the other un-redeemed codes as 'In Use' even though they have not been redeemed!!!
