About Autonomous Single App Mode

Supervised devices support Autonomous Single App Mode (ASAM). A device is supervised through the Apple Configurator or Apple's Device Enrollment Program. You can turn on this setting in your MDM provider, or in the Room App.

When ASAM is on, the Rooms app stays in the foreground in Single App Mode. If the device loses connectivity, it exits Single App Mode so you can troubleshoot more easily. It returns to ASAM automatically when the app is open and the device is back online.

Set up Single App Mode through MDM

For platform-specific steps to manage your devices in Single App or Autonomous Single App Mode, see your MDM provider's instructions. If you need the app's bundle identifier, use com.robinpowered.rooms.

Set up Single App Mode in Robin

  1. In the Rooms app, go to the Space Info screen.
  2. Scroll down to the Software and System Info section.
  3. Select "Enter Single App Mode".

Supervised devices lock to the Rooms app automatically. If your device is unsupervised, Robin sends you to the device settings to turn on Guided Access Mode.

Heads up

Admins can add PIN protection to restrict access to in-app settings such as Single App Mode. A PIN stops users from changing settings. See Customize room display scheduling configurations.
