How do I enable device installed apps?

Hi, I have COPE devices with launcher and multi-app enabled. No problems for enabling like play store apps, but what if I want to enable the standard camera o file browser of the device? In ' Miscellaneous'  apps I can enable contacts and phone standard apps, but how do I add others? I can see ' ad an app'  but it asks for an ID, but I cannot find any camera app ID on the device...

Only u have to delete them from launcher. Once u get out of profile config the app is gone. The only get to stay only if there is an asignation in the launcher.

You'll have to do some research.  What brand is the phone or what is the name of the camera app bundled with the device?  Someone might know it.  Otherwise, look on the Play Store for an app information app.  There are several which can help you find app ids for installed apps.

Thank you. I'm trying to figure out how to find the app name string and ID, of course it's not on play store because it's a system app...so not a very user friendly mothod!!
They should simply had options to enable system apps on the template, like already is for phone and contacts...

I found out...had to install APK info on the device and find the ID...then I could add it onto the miscellaneous apps in launcher...and it works.

Install application called 'Package Names' and it will provide you App IDs for all native applications and services you are looking for. This is especially useful with Secure Launcher when you need certain services to be running as hidden.

as noted, you can use various apps (I used App Manager) to find all the app id's that I wanted to have be visible and hidden.
