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.

NOTE: Each of the above features are described in complete detail in DOC-3664. Future core releases could introduce new Lockdown options
