    You can force Intune Device check-in from the Company Portal App installed on your Android phone. Afterward, review the logs on your Android device to check if the policy is successfully applied. For more detailed information, refer to: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/app-protection-policy-settings-log".

    @RJay,Thanks for posting in Q&A.

    From your description, I know that you have deployed app protection policy, but have not taken effect after a long time.

    For your situation, I know that the mobile devices are not enroll in Intune which may take a long time to take effect after policy assigned. Moreover, the policy delivery time depends on the license state and Intune service registration for your users.

    Here is a link about app protection policy delivery time you can refer.

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/app-protection-policy-delivery#delivery-timing-summary

    You can manually sync with Intune using Company Portal.

    Hope above information can be helpful.
