How to start with Shared iPads for Business with Microsoft Endpoint Manager (Intune) and Apple Business Manager

November 3, 2020Enterprise Mobility + Security, Intune, Microsoft Endpoint Manager13 comments

I get the following question regularly; “can we configure our Apple iPads as Shared device. Where you as a user, can login and logoff without seeing each other’s data?”. Most of the time it’s about medical personal that works in shifts and don’t have a personal device. But you can also think of maintenance and field agents or flight crew members for example. In this case you want to let the employees use their applications across a pool of shared devices. They should be able to pick any random device from that pool, login and do their work.

First of all, it is not really a Windows Virtual Desktop problem, this has been a Microsoft Windows setting for many years now. However, when publishing a Desktop or a RemoteApp from a Windows Virtual Desktop host pool where the session host VMs running Windows 10, there are no visible borders around the windows by default. For example, see the blow screenshot. A File Explorer window is open, with on top of it the Microsoft Paint application. You cannot see where one window ends and the other one starts.

Or for example, a construction company that wants to deliver the Autodesk AutoCAD, Autodesk Revit and Autodesk InfraWorks CAD applications.
