Provisioning a Home Screen & Screen saver image with Afaria

Former Member

Hi All,

We currently use Afaria 7 SP5 HF6 to manage our fleet of iPhones and iPads.

We are looking to customize the home screen and Screen saver of the devices with a Corporate image.

I've spent many hours playing in our test environment trying to find a solution to deploy these Images to our managed devices.

Has anyone else done this and if so how?

Kevin, As Sushmitha said, there is no current way to do this, and if possible, it would be an enhancement.

Just as an FYI, there isn't much chance that this is something that Apple would allow unless the device was under Supervised mode. If you have a Mac computer, you may want to check out the Apple Configurator to see if there is an option similar to this, and check the Administrators guide for whether you would be interested in following the steps required to run the devices in Supervised mode... it is not typically something that is desired for BYOD environments, but can fit well with environments of company owned devices.

Hello Kevin,

Thank you for reaching out to SAP Community Network.

This is to let you know that Afaria On Premise/On Cloud cannot manage the Home Screen savers on the enrolled devices. Afaria can manage(disable/enable) to screen capture and settings on the device however do not manage the background image settings on the enrolled device.

I would recommend to report this as an enhancement request at Afaria Idea Place:  https://ideas.sap.com/afariamakesiteasy

Hope this helps!!

Cheers,
