Parents use instructions provided by the school to open Self Service on the student's school-issued device. Then, they add the devices to Jamf Parent by scanning the QR code in Self Service using a device with iOS 10.2 or later with the Jamf Parent app installed on it.
To help parents get started with Jamf Parent, you can provide them with the Jamf Parent Guide for Jamf Pro Parents.
- The parent opens Self Service on the student's device, and then taps the Jamf Parent icon in the top-right corner of the page.
- The parent downloads Jamf Parent from the App Store or Google Play on their own iOS or Android device.
- The parent opens Jamf Parent, and then taps Get Started.
- The parent taps Scan QR Code to scan the QR code in Self Service, and then taps Confirm.
The student device is paired with Jamf Parent. Parents can repeat this process for any other student devices they want to manage with Jamf Parent.
If two or more parents want to manage the same child's device with Jamf Parent, they must close and reopen the QR code in Self Service before scanning the QR code on the second device with Jamf Parent.
