just found this on apple site



Apps
• Apps are assigned to the user account in Profile Manager
• Apps become visible in the Apple ID's App Store account as available for install
• If the device is set to autoinstall "purchased" apps, the apps for iPad will just appear
• Apps can be "revoked" by the enterprise, returning the license to the available pool
• Apps do not dissapear from devices



Managed Distro does not really fit education as depending on age your students may not be able to have an Apple ID, may not have email, and the devices may not be deployed in a one-to-one.



You are back to master image cloning through Configurator.



If this is the case then this setup is a waste of time as we use ipads in carts so they are a shared device, we need it to install the app with the apple id not logged all the time.



Can someone tell me if this is right or wrong



thanks

@mratty I just had an apple deployment presentation with our rep yesterday. The VPP 2.0 program is not designed for situations such as ipads on a cart. They recommend in that sort of scenario you still sync them with a configuration station.

Are you also creating an app assignment under Mobile Devices, scoping it to the device, and setting the distribution method to install automatically?



If so look at the inventory on the mobile device. It should give you more info under history and tell you why it failed to install.
