Removing User-Added Web Clips with a Managed Layout

Hey there,

 

I was wondering if there is an easy way to remove user-added web clips from the home screen, or preventing them from being added in the first place. I see that someone had asked this question a few years ago but there was no accepted solution from what I could tell.

 

At my district we have 1:1 iPads in K-2 and it helps to have the layout configured so that our managed apps and web clips are where our teachers/student expect them to be. Sometimes a web clip will get added by a student/teacher and the teacher will want it removed, but they lack the permissions to edit the layout themselves. Jamf school does not have any way to view/remove user-added web clips to my knowledge.

 

Is disabling the profile with the managed layout or wiping the device the only ways to circumvent this?

 

Thank you!

Ben
