Device Pairing Enhancements for Jamf School
- On a parent device, users can now view a list of all supervising devices for a child's device by tapping the child's device name.Note:
If the list displays devices the parent does not recognize or want supervising the child's device, you can unpair them in Jamf School. Navigate to in the sidebar and click the child's name, then click Edit details. Next to Parents in the Jamf Parent section, click X next to the name of the device you want to unpair from the child's device, then click Save.
On a child device, users can now view a list of all supervising devices by navigating to the child's avatar, tapping Settings, and then tapping Authorize parent.
A notification now displays on both the parent and child devices when the devices are paired.
The device pairing QR code is now valid for 15 minutes before it expires and a new code must be used.
On a parent device, users can now unpair a child device by navigating to the Settings icon and tapping the device they want to unpair in the Paired devices section. Users can then tap Remove paired device and the two devices will be unpaired.
