Hi everyone,

My company is using iPads for daily operation, and some of our staffs updated to iOS 10 then we started to encounter APP crashed intermittent issue, we strongly believe it's compatibility issue as we did not encounter this in iOS 9.

Anyone know how to restrict manage iPad from updating iOS?

We're using a global HTTP proxy, as explained by @Emmert here:

It works flawlessly.

@St0rMl0rD thanks for your reply.
Will this block my APPs being updated in APP Store too?

No, just iOS updates (tested and verified).

hi @St0rMl0rD

I tried your method, and it caused Safari failed to connection to internet

Make sure you're only blocking mesu.apple.com on the proxy server. I suggest you contact @Emmert if you have more questions.
