Famoco Connect provisioning¶
Previously, when subscribing to the Famoco Connect feature, you had to go through our support team in order to activate it on your devices.
It is now possible to activate the feature by yourself, inside of the MDM, either:
- with an action in the Device's table, after selecting devices
- or through the dedicated Famoco Connect menu
Info
There will be however a transitionary period in which the support team is still required, as the feature requires a recent image of the Famoco OS to be installed on your devices. Please contact them for more information.
Alerting¶
Two new Alerts are now available:
- Famoco Connect data limit
Get an email or MDM notification whenever your devices start consuming too much data on their Famoco Connect plan.
- Application issues
Get a lot more insight into issues happening on your devices due to applications failing to install or uninstall.
Many improvements to User Interface and User Experience¶
- Insights dashboard editing
We've simplified the edition of Insights dashboards by making them directly editable on the fly. This means you don't need to modify your whole dashboard to check a few filter changes, you may edit anything you want and your dashboard will only be saved the moment you press the "Save" button.
- Mobile friendly interface
The MDM is now a lot more usable through tablets and phones, for those situations when you need to apply changes on the go, away from a computer. Here is an example of the MDM running on a tablet.
- Remote Control redesign
When using the Remote Control feature, the MDM page would restrict the user to the screen which controls the device. This would mean that if further changes needed to be applied on the MDM, users were forced to open a separate window in order to operate. We've redesigned this feature in order to be more usable, by adding the following things:
- it is now also possible to activate the feature from the actions bar in the device's table when selecting a single device, not only through the side panel of a device
- you may now move the window of your remote control session and even minimize it, in order to work on the MDM in parallel
- take screenshots of what's happening on the device by pressing a dedicated button
- Send campaigns directly from the Devices or Fleet tables
When selecting devices or fleets in their corresponding tables, you may now send a Push Notification to those devices directly, without having to go through the dedicated menu, by pressing the icon.
- Token information in Action Token file
Pressing "download" on the side panel of an Action Token allows you to retrieve an image of the QR Code related to that token. However, we've received feedback from our users that it is often complicated to manage several Action Tokens in parallel, as there is no way to differentiate between them in their QR Code form.
We have now added more context in the image, displaying all information related to that specific Action Token along with the QR Code.
- Select from file
The "Select from file" feature, which has existed for a long time, was too hidden in the Device's menu, which made it relatively unknown by our users (albeit being very useful). It is now featured more prominently, above the table, next to the export button.
- Search devices by SIM ICCID
It is now possible to filter devices by SIM ICCID, in order to find which device contains a specific SIM card. You'll find it among the filters on the Device's table.
- Add comment to Fleets
Just as with many other objects in the MDM, it is now possible to add comments to Fleets.
- Software Update Policy schedules
Two new schedule types were added in the Software Update Policy form: "at next boot" and "at next day and next boot"
MDM 3.4 (January 2026)¶
Insights¶
We've redesigned how Insights Paid MDM Add-On works completely, in order to give its users a lot more flexibility.
- Improved data table: We've fused the data tables Insights provided, and the final result now exposes a lot more information and filters, allowing you to really understand in-depth all the available information about your devices. Check out the Discover page for more information.
- Interactivity between charts and the data table: You may now interact with charts in order to assess the exact devices they are exposing. When clicking on key elements of most charts, you will be redirected to the Discover page with the same exact filters, allowing you to fully understand which devices are being displayed on your dashboard's charts.
- New Battery charts: The existing battery charts were replaced with two much more useful ones. One chart lives in your dashboards, listing the battery level repartition of devices through time (in order to determine whether you have to adjust your battery management rules to avoid low availability of your devices at key moments of your day).
The second one lives in the side-panel of your devices in the Discover page, and shows how the battery of particular devices has evolved through time.
OS Actions¶
Famoco now gives you access to advanced features you can set on your profiles, accessible in the OS Actions section.
Push Notifications message reception time¶
Push Notifications used to require devices to be connected at the time of the message being sent. Now, devices will have a 24 hours window to connect to the internet and receive the notification. In a future release, this limit will be modifiable.
MDM 3.3 (October 2025)¶
Famoco Connect data consumption charts¶
You may now track the data consumption of your devices if they are using Famoco Connect.
For more information about Famoco Connect, please check its dedicated page and the page detailing the integrations in the MDM.
Reusable paths¶
Ever wanted to share your findings in the MDM data tables with someone else? It is now possible, as any filter or ordering you apply on them will now be displayed in the URL, allowing you to share that URL with other users in your organization to allow them to get the same results.
"Select from file" using Custom IDs and IMEIs¶
Selecting devices on the MDM's Devices table using a file was possible when using Famoco IDs as a reference. We've heard your feedback: IMEIs and Custom IDs are now usable too!
MDM 3.2 (August 2025)¶
New device side-panel¶
The devices side-panel was getting cluttered, and it was complicated to get all the information needed. That's why we made it even bigger!
Now you still have the primary information about your device when clicking on its row, but if you click on "View All Device Details" you will find everything you need to know about your device!
New application management tool¶
Application management was considered a bit too tricky. We've redesigned it entirely to be more user-friendly. Please check our brand new Guide in order to understand how it works.
Major upgrade on permission handling¶
We have entirely reworked all the management of permissions inside our different services and features. You can now create custom roles and API access tokens with many specific permissions.
Each MDM page listed on this Help Website (see the quick start page for the full list) now has one or more "Permissions" call-outs (see example below), which when clicked on allow you to understand the impact of each permission found in the Custom Roles or API tokens.
Example:
Permissions (CLICK ME)
Some text explaining the permissions for the section you are reading.
User Experience improvements¶
- Table column re-ordering: You may now re-order columns by highlighting the desired column, finding the icon, and using a drag-and-drop mechanic to set the column at the desired position.
- Easy access to actions in the side-panels (on all menus)
Other¶
- Device Labels are now exportable fields
- You may now pick whether you want OTA upgrades to function when using roaming mobile data
- Apps now display a default image instead of a broken one if app does not include an logo
- ICCID and IMSI data are now displayed on the device side-panel if it has a SIM card inside it
- Many bugfixes!
