WSone launcher profile acess to Android application menu

Hello everyone,

I'm having a issue, and i did some research (probably i did not use the correct words on that searches).

I'm configuring a launcher profile for android devices (work managed android for work devices).

On the launcher, i want to have access into the aplication menu ( in order to allow users to clean the app cache).

I've tried to use the option Add Custom Device Settings and set the android package for aplication but i was not lucky.

 

i'm asking for your help, if possible,

thanks in advance

Hi

Try it in custom settings

<characteristic type="com.airwatch.android.androidwork.launcher"
uuid="bc64ce50-2506-11ed-861d-0242ac120002">
<parm name="CustomSettings"
value="{&quot;CustomSettings&quot;:[{&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Applications&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:&quot;android.settings.MANAGE_APPLICATIONS_SETTINGS&quot;}]}" />
</characteristic>

NOTE if you are doing this on a Tablet you need to add "Forcelaunch" else it wont appear on the launcher menu on tablets specifically, So same as from OlegKiselev just with the additional Force launch toggle

 

<characteristic type="com.airwatch.android.androidwork.launcher" uuid="568bc89d-1df8-4ce9-a041-e5a24acdb7ef">

<parm name="CustomSettings" value="{&quot;CustomSettings&quot;: [

{&quot;name&quot;: &quot;App Settings&quot;,&quot;forceLaunch&quot;: &quot;true&quot;,&quot;action&quot;: &quot;android.settings.MANAGE_APPLICATIONS_SETTINGS&quot;}

]}"/>

Hi,

As I can see, you missed comma

MANAGE_APPLICATIONS_SETTINGS&quot;},
{&quot;name&quot;

Hello everyone,

i was trying to add a second feature in the custom xml:



<characteristic type="com.airwatch.android.androidwork.launcher"
uuid="bc64ce50-2506-11ed-861d-0242ac120002">
<parm name="CustomSettings"
value="{&quot;CustomSettings&quot;:[{&quot;name&quot;:&quot;Applications&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:&quot;android.settings.MANAGE_APPLICATIONS_SETTINGS&quot;}
{&quot;name&quot;:&quot;APN&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:&quot;android.settings.APN_SETTINGS&quot;}]}" />
</characteristic>



i does not work.

I've read vmware docs and was unable to figure out.

anyone had the same issue?



thanks

Hi Oleg,

 

in fact, that was the issue.

I guess that after 8 hours trying to solve the issue, the error was right in front of me...

thanks once more for the help.
