I have a fleet of ipads that run conference room meeting equipment. I’m trying to figure out a way to schedule them to reboot overnight, a couple of times a week. I know this can be done with a policy for macos. I’m hoping i can accomplish something similar on iOS. All the answers i’m getting seem to be related to the computer side of things. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If your org owns Jamf for Mobile or Business Plan licensing, then you should have access to Jamf Routines (https://www.jamfroutines.com/login.html). There is a “Restart Mobile Devices” option in there.

If you do not have access to Jamf Routines, you can probably re-create the same functionality using AWS Lambda or MS Power Automate maybe. You really just need a device/service that can run a script. The script would need to pull in the list of devices via API and then send out restart commands via API. Sounds complicated but it shouldn’t be too complicated.
