Whatsapp and android enterprise Work Device

Hi,


 


anyone experiencing problems with Whatsapp on Work Managed Android Enterprise devices?


Our devices don't see contacts names in main Whatsapp page, only phone numbers.


I already created a policy to grant all permissions to apps ( inlcuded Whatsapp), but the app can't still access Contacts.


 


Any help?


Thank you


Giorgio

Hello,


Was this ever resolved for you? Or did you come across a solution for this?


I recently came across this same issue and would appreciate any updates.


Regards,
Diego


 


EDIT: I was able to solve this by enabling OEM Settings for the Restrictions profile. I did however have to manually enable the settings for WhatsApp after it installed. This affected Work Profile/ Samsung Knox enrolled devices.

Hi,

Is this issue was resolved?  Does it have any relation with the Android 11 OS?  Thanks.
