Configure Single App Mode Profile
The Single App Mode feature for tvOS enables administrators to lock a supervised Apple TV device into a single application, ensuring the device remains dedicated to a specific use-case, such as digital signage, meeting room display, or kiosk.
This functionality ensures that users cannot exit the assigned app, making the device purpose-specific and secure.
Steps to Configure Single App Mode Profile
Navigate to SureMDM Web Console > Profiles > tvOS > Add > Single App Mode > Configure.
Enter a Profile Name.
In the Single App Mode configuration screen:
Options | Description |
---|---|
Lockdown Application | Select the application from the dropdown |
App ID | Based on the application selected, App ID / Bundle ID will get populated. |
::: note: Lockdown works only for the apps that are installed on the device. :::
Click Save.
The newly created profile will be listed in the Profiles section.
Go back to the Home tab and select the tvOS device(s) or group(s).
Click Apply to launch the Apply Job/Profile To Device prompt.
In the Apply Job/Profile To Device prompt, select the created profile and click Apply.
