Hi All.

Does anyone know if it is possible to restrict access to the hidden photo album or even the ability to hide photos in the first place?

I’m surprised there isn’t a restriction setting within Jamf to disable access to this.

Cheers

Doesn’t look like there is an option yet. This would be an Apple thing, not MDM.

You could provide Apple Feedback on this. I can see a use case for this too.

Apple makes the MDM framework, Jamf can only hook in to what apple makes. Apple is also generally extremely protective over what they consider to be user personalization preferences and user privacy. 

 

Honestly, where you are surprised apple has not added a control yet, I would be more surprised if apple ever adds a control for this. You can always just restrict photos to stop people from using the app.
