Tech Lockdown members can also access our premium guide for enabling supervised mode directly from the dashboard.
Supervised mode is required in order for Config Presets to work as expected.
Tools for Supervised iPhones
We also have two Tools that help manage restrictions on supervised iPhone devices:
- App Management: Manage App Blocklists or Allowlists.
- Config Presets: Install Config Presets that restrict common features that could interfere with Content Filtering.
These can be accessed by going to Tools > iPhone on the Tech Lockdown dashboard.
Can I Supervise an iPad?
Yes. Device supervision should work on most modern iPads.
Blocking Settings
Unfortunately, it's not possible to completely disable the Settings app on iPhone devices. We recommend using our Config Presets to restrict certain settings instead.
You can access Config Presets on the dashboard by going to Tools > iPhone > Config Presets.
Lock DNS and VPN Settings
Device supervision does allow you to install locked version of the filtered VPN such that it can't be disabled.
Plus, if you've connected your iPhone to filtering using DNS, this can also be enforced by device supervision without the option to remove.
