In my state (NJ) the governor just issued a directive to (among other things) disallow certain apps on government-owned devices. This includes TikTok which is garnering all the press, as well as many other apps from developers such as Huawei and Tencent. 

So restricting an app with a config profile is straightforward (wish I could DELETE the apps, but...). However, I'd like to restrict a developer's entire suite of apps, which theoretically should be easier than one app at a time. I just can't figure out how. Has anyone out there done this? TIA.

Looking something similar to this (TX) here

 

one thing, seems could be done, for iPads is make unmanaged apps managed, then I can delete the app.  but I dont think there is an app for laptops (unless m1 etc)

 

I just (we all) just need to comply with the state order and would be nice to have or find something that makes it easier.
