Ask the MDM administrator to display the "Allow Google Play Store" setting in the MDM console. 2. Verify the setting is disabled. 3. Verify the policy has been assigned to all groups. On the LG Android device: 1. Unlock the device. 2. Navigate to the Play Store on the device home screen. 3. Verify Google Play Store application does not run. If on the MDM console the "Allow Google Play Store" setting is enabled or if the user is able to run the Google Play Store on the LG Android device, this is a finding. |
