App configuration policies - Apps not listed in Public Apps selection

Question

Hello everyone,

Just wanted to ask a simple question probably.

While wanting to create an App Configuration Policy in Intune under the Public apps selection I can find certain apps.
Saw that the apps "iOS volume purchase program app" type are not listed. An example of an app like this is Apple Store listed as "iOS Volume......app".

Can anyone help with the reason why exactly it is not possible and maybe if there is a link describing this?

Thanks,
A.

@Anri Cela Thanks for posting in our Q&A.

For this issue, I have done some research. I find that the app configuration policy supports these two type apps:
Managed iOS/iPadOS app from the app store
App package for iOS

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/apps/app-configuration-policies-use-ios

It seems that it doesn't support "iOS volume purchase program app". So, these apps aren't listed.

Hope the above information will help.
