Hi everyone

I enabled kiosk mode on our iOS devices so users can only use Safari.
Now I have the problem that after a restart of the device the SIM PIN cannot be entered.
The Popup appears, but disappears immediately.

Does anyone have an idea how to allow to enter the SIM PIN?

Thanks in advance!

    @Patrick Treichler Thanks for posting in our Q&A.

    Based on my research, I didn't find that Apple has given the MDM feature about unlock SIM. What intune can do is based on which MDM feature Apple provided.

    I have noticed that the Popup appears, but disappears immediately. It seems that the Safari blocked Pop-ups. It is suggested to try to also add built-in app "Settings" to this kiosk profile and then check if the setting "Block Pop-ups" is turned off in Settings > Safari.

    If there is anything update, feel free to let us know.
