Using a QR code

Modified on Wed, 9 Jul at 3:37 PM

There are two different ways to enroll a work profile on an Android BYOD device:

  • The user can download the Android Device Policy app on the device, open it and scan the QR code provided by the WizyEMM admin
  • The user can navigate on the device to Settings > Google > Set up work profile and follow the steps

Step 1: Find the QR Code

The QR code is specific to the Profile applied to the device. It is generated automatically by WizyEMM.

This QR code is located in the Enrollment tab of each Profile created in the WizyEMM console.

Warning: The QR Code is valid at most 30 days. Please be aware of this validity period if you distribute this QR code outside of the WizyEMM console.


To generate a new QR code from the WizyEMM console once the old one has expired, simply save the profile on the Enrollment tab.

 

Step 2: Enroll the BYOD = Bring Your Own Device

The process is straightforward and can be done by any user in a couple of minutes.
