MANAGE ANDROID WITHOUT AN APP: THE ANDROID MANAGEMENT API
summary
Android Management API replaces custom on-device DPC code with a single JSON policy and a hosted management app so server changes push features without APK updates. A previously seven-step mandatory app uninstall sequence becomes a single removal from the policy JSON. Demos show kiosk, multi‑app launcher and shared‑user modes on Android P, managed Google Play and zero‑touch provisioning, plus work‑profile support and managed configs; partners (Intune, Mobile Tech, Belute Yazilim, Yumpingo) roll out devices and report faster deployments and fewer client QA headaches.
