What does this mean on an iPhone (real life experiences preferably) and how can it be removed


Thanks.

Managed remotely by an organisation that owns the devices. Is the apple Id yours or someone else? They won't have access to your data but it can be remotely wiped or locked.
Full factory reset works in some cases but usually requires the administrator to u enroll the device

I don't use smart phones

Never saw the need and never ever will.

My Nokia touch serves me very well.

Not on any useless social media apart from Telegram desktop and GAB.

How does it feel to own a device more smarter than you which you are yet to use up to 2% its capacity ?

Linux desktop user by the way and have since erased all traces of windows on all my devices

So save your consumerism bs for other fellow low self esteem plebs.

It means the device was given to an employee by a company - MDM managed devices over intune, jumpcloud or jamf.

The employer can remotely wipe the device or control the apps and. settings you can install

Nigerians / chinese guys bypass it though and resell in Nigeria cheesy
Re: Guys What Does This Mean On An Iphone And How Can It Be Removed? by Nicerazor(m): 11:59am On Jul 05, 2022
This is MDM ( Remote Management Profile) means the phone is the property of the company. They give such phones to their employees for effective communication and work. The company remotely manages activities of such employees on the phone.
There is a probability the staff is no longer working in that company and left with the phone which was later sold and find its way to Naija when he is supposed to submit the phone to the management.
Mdm restrictions can only be bypassed at the moment as there is no permanent removal for it. The Mdm setup in done by IT department of a company in collaboration with apple. The serial number has been linked to the mdm so even if you reset the phone it will get locked again and you can always bypass with 3,000 naira to 5,000 naira depending on the person fixing it for you.

When the mdm profile is bypassed the company cannot see your activities.
Cheers

If he reset it will get locked to mdm but it can be bypassed with 3-5k.
MegaPlayBoy:
If the phone was bought used, it means it was previously used by an employee of a company (the company got it for the employee in question). It was used in the company intranet before being sold off

It's nothing bad and you can use it normally without fear



Don't you dare reset the phone. If you try am, it will ask for the company password. The phone go just useless

It can be bypassed as many time as it gets locked. It’s even cheap to bypass. But the phone seller is supposed to let you know it’s mdm bypassed such phones are usually cheaper like 50k price difference from non mdm bypassed.
Secondt44:
The phone is being supervised and mentained by the company. So the company requested for it's production from Apple on a purpose. Don't reset the phone as the first person said, it will request for the company password. Except if you will order for it's new panel online. Then you take it to an expert to fix it for you.
Then you're using a new phone.

The phone has an MDM mobile device management app on it and depending on the specific app they may be able to view data on tbe phone as they consider the phone and data on the phone as company property.
They might also be able to activate remote wiping of the phone . So one day you might wake up and your phone is essentially a brick

There’s no mdm app in the phone or an mdm profile either. Neither does it say which company/person was managing and supervising it…
