We're having an issue with the Jamf Setup app (iPadOS) displaying in single app mode. We've configured the app so that the user can enroll their device during the process with Entra Login. However, the Jamf Setup app requires Safari to display the Entra registration window. Unfortunately, when I launch the Jamf Setup app in single app mode, I can't enroll my device because the Entra registration window doesn't appear. I don't want to use the "restriction" profile to only allow Jamf Setup and Safari, because our users might simply browse with Safari without registering their device. Do you have any suggestions or experience on how I can lock my iPad in the Jamf Setup app and registering the device using Entra Login?

Yea there’s a lot more to it than just that. The single app mode for jamf setup actually screws up a lot more than just what you mentioned. 
 

Lots of “chicken/egg” scenarios that just won’t work. 
 

limit the Home Screen to just JAMF setup and settings when there’s no EA filled. That’s how we got around it for now.
