Using a MDM solution

Autonomous Single App Mode. This mode allows Snappic to automatically enter Single App Mode when you start an event, and exit Single App Mode when you end the event by typing in your admin passcode on the iPad/iPhone. This makes it much easier to adjust any settings on the device, such as the Wi-Fi connection, or perform other tasks outside of Snappic.

To set this up, you must be running the latest version of Snappic (at least version 1.22), and you will also need a 3rd party MDM solution. Most (if not all) of these are not free, but are not too expensive, at around $2-$3 per device per month. You will need to add the Snappic bundle identifier, com.mushroomcloud.Snappic, * to the list of apps that are allowed to use Autonomous Single App Mode. This process is different for each MDM solution, and you will need to find a guide for the specific MDM solution you use, or contact their customer support.

Note:
When evaluating an MDM solution, make sure they support Autonomous Single App Mode. We have tested SimpleMDM, which worked well in our tests. The alternative is Jamf.

Pros:

  • Much easier to manage devices running at events

Cons:

  • A little bit more difficult to set up initially

  • Not free
