Is there a way to stop iOS devices from loading the app updates that are triggered by the "Automatically update App" feature of Jamf when the device is on international mobile roaming?

scope to network segments, only have it on your LAN (doesn't always work due to vpn's etc, just an idea)

Hi @charliwest Thanks for your input. But the "Automatically update App" is a global setting that can just be switched on without being able to define a scope :-(

@tobiaslinder If you instead configure each app to update automatically, you can turn off the global setting.

@cdenesha or course but that still doesn't let me change the scope of the Devises that receive the update, right? :-(

@tobiaslinder Ahh, correct. You would need two entries in the App Catalog, one with auto update and one without. Too painful to manage.
