Exceptions for policy settings

For users running the Access Mobile Client for Android, Access Mobile Client for Good Dynamics
(iOS) and Access Mobile Client with Mobile Iron AppConenct apps, there are some exceptions to
the way Acronis Access management policies are applied to the Access Mobile Client app. In the case
of Android, a few of the features of the iOS client are not yet supported, so the related policies do
not apply. In the case of Good Dynamics, a few of the standard Access Mobile Client policy features
are deferred to the Good Dynamics system and the Good Dynamics policy set that you have
configured on your Good Control server. With MobileIron, a few of the standard Acronis Access
policy features are deferred to the MobileIron AppConnect platform. These exceptions are noted on
the Acronis Access policy configuration pages. Hover over the Good, Android and MobileIron logos
for more details on the individual policy exceptions.
