Security Controls
These controls are provided by Google and implemented by your EMM provider. ProntoForms does not specifically support or enable/disable any of these options. The App-Specific cut and paste options work independently from the “Allow copy and paste” options in the Work Profile settings. In particular, the App-Specific options work for both employee-owned and corporate-owned devices.
MobileIron Core Admin: App Catalog > Edit App > Managed App Settings:
MobileIron Core Admin: Policies & Configs > Configurations > Add New > iOS and IOS X > Restrictions
Secure Tunneling support
Currently, ProntoForms does not support secure tunneling.
