Most MDM solutions are built around Android Enterprise and Google Mobile Services. That works great for standard devices — but what about your rugged terminals, industrial PDAs, point-of-sale hardware, and digital signage that ship without GMS?For organizations deploying these devices at scale, management has historically meant fragmented tools, vendor-specific workarounds, or simply giving up on centralized control.Not anymore.Applivery now supports full MDM for AOSP devices — Android devices that run without any Google dependency. No Google account. No Android Enterprise setup. No Managed Google Play. Just the same Applivery Dashboard you already use.

⚙️ Key Capabilities

  • Kiosk Mode — lock a device to a single app or a curated suite, with full control over the navigation bar, status bar, and power button
  • Silent App Distribution — install, update, and uninstall APKs directly from the Dashboard, no Play Store required
  • Policy Enforcement — password complexity, keyguard restrictions, factory-reset protection, remote wipe, and 80+ configurable settings
  • Wi-Fi & Certificate Management — silently provision corporate networks (Open, WPA, WPA-Enterprise with EAP-TLS, PEAP, and TTLS)
  • Always-On VPN — force all device traffic through a corporate VPN with optional lockdown mode
  • Remote Commands — lock, reboot, reset password, clear app data, and disenroll devices in real time
  • OEM Configurations — extended support for Zebra, Bluebird, Samsung Knox, and other AOSP hardware
  • Factory Provisioning — pre-install the Applivery DPC in an OEM image and provision devices automatically at first boot

📌 Use Cases

  • Retail and logistics fleets running ruggedized Android terminals
  • Point-of-sale and self-service kiosks
  • Industrial and warehouse PDAs without GMS certification
  • Digital signage and fixed-purpose devices
  • Any OEM Android build requiring dedicated device lockdown
