About this chapter
What this chapter covers
Devices exist to run apps, and Intune can deploy them and protect their data. This domain is worth 15 to 20 percent of the exam. It covers preparing and deploying apps (Win32, line of business, Store and platform store apps), Microsoft 365 Apps, Quiet Time policies, and the two policy types that govern apps on mobile devices: app protection policies and app configuration policies.
You need to pick the right app type and the right policy for managed and personal devices, and to read an installation failure.
How the topics fit together
- Preparing and deploying Win32, LOB and Store apps covers app types and how installs are detected.
- Platform store apps, Quiet Time and troubleshooting installs covers Apple Business Manager, managed Google Play and monitoring.
- Deploying and managing Microsoft 365 Apps covers installing and servicing Office.
- App protection policies and Conditional Access covers data protection for managed and personal devices.
- App configuration policies covers preconfiguring apps.
App protection works on the app and the user, so it covers personal devices. App configuration sets app settings. Do not mix them up.
