Enroll devices with QR code
To enroll an Android Enterprise fully managed device with a QR code, you scan the QR code during the initial device setup.
Requirements
- You have a Sophos Mobile user account. You must enter the account credentials during the enrollment process.
- You have the enrollment QR code available.
To enroll a device:
- Turn on a new device, or reset it to its factory settings if it was already in use.
-
On the Welcome page of the Android setup assistant, tap six times in the same spot.
This opens a QR code reader.
On some devices, you must connect to a Wi-Fi network so that Android can download the QR code reader.
-
Scan the QR code.
- If the QR code doesn’t contain a Wi-Fi configuration, or if the Wi-Fi network isn’t available, connect to a network manually.
- Follow the enrollment instructions.
The device enrolls with Sophos Mobile as an Android Enterprise fully managed device.
Depending on the device, the setup procedure might be shorter compared to a manual setup. For example, vendor-specific configuration steps might be skipped.
