Requirements

You must accept the terms and conditions before App Installers is enabled. Navigate to Organization > Settings in the sidebar. Click the App Installers payload and review the terms and conditions, then select the I understand and agree to these terms and conditions checkbox and click Enable App Installers.

  1. In Jamf School, navigate to Apps > App Installers in the sidebar.
  2. Click + Add App and search for the app you want to add.
  3. Click Add and then click Done.
  4. Click the app you want to deploy and then click the + icon in the lower-left corner and select the device group you want to scope the app to.
    Note:

    Jamf School cannot uninstall Jamf School App Installers apps. You can remove one of these apps from your Jamf School App library, but it will remain on the device. To remove a Jamf School App Installers app, the user must manually remove the app from the device.

  5. Click Save in the lower-right corner.

The app is installed on each device in the group the next time the device checks in.

If you want to install the app before the next check-in, you can refresh each device by navigating to Devices > Inventory. Then select the checkbox next to each device in the group that you want to scope the app to and click Refresh.
Note:

Some Jamf School instances currently display Devices > Devices in the sidebar. In a future Jamf School update, your sidebar instance will display Devices > Inventory.
