On iPhones and iPads, users must go to the Settings app to install the configuration profile. If they don’t install the profile within 8 minutes, it will be deleted and you must start over.

This restriction doesn’t apply to devices you assign to Sophos Mobile using Apple Business Manager or Apple Configurator, or to iPhones with iOS 12.1.x or earlier.

On Macs, the enrollment must be performed by the user that will be managed by Sophos Mobile. To install the enrollment policy, the user must enter an administrator password.
