Android (AOSP) device settings to allow or restrict features using Intune

This article describes the different settings you can control on Android (AOSP) devices. You can use these restrictions to configure password requirements and access to device features.

This feature applies to:

  • Android Open Source Project (AOSP) corporate-owned userless devices (shared)
  • Android Open Source Project (AOSP) corporate-owned user-associated devices (single user)

Before you begin

Device password

  • Required password type: Require users to use a certain type of password. Your options:

    • Device default: To evaluate password compliance, be sure to select a password strength other than Device default. If you want to require users to set up a passcode on their devices, configure this setting to a more secure option.

    • Numeric (default): Password must only be numbers, such as 123456789. Also enter:

      • Minimum password length: Enter the minimum number of digits the password must have, from 4 to 16.
    • Numeric complex: Doesn't permit repeat or consecutive numbers, such as 1111 or 1234. Also enter:

      • Minimum password length: Enter the minimum number of digits or characters a password must have, from 4 to 16.
  • Number of sign-in failures before wiping device: Enter the number of sign-in attempts allowed, from 4 to 11, before the device is wiped. 0 (zero) might disable the device wipe functionality. When the value is blank, Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

  • Maximum minutes of inactivity until screen locks: Enter the maximum length of time, from 1 minute to 1 hour, that devices can be idle before the screen is automatically locked. Users must enter their credentials to regain access. For example, enter 5 to lock the device after 5 minutes of inactivity. When the value is blank or set to Not configured, Intune doesn't change or update this setting.

Note

  • RealWear devices currently only support device default, numeric, and numeric complex password types.
  • The password type Password required, no restrictions appears as an option but doesn't currently work on devices, which is a known issue.
