Mobile Access Restrictions

Overview

MangoApps provides the flexibility to restrict access to its mobile apps based on user segments. This feature ensures that only a defined group of employees can log in and use the mobile apps, adding an extra layer of security and control.

The Mobile Access Controlled by User Segment feature allows administrators to:

  • Restrict mobile app access (iOS, Android, iPad) to a specific segment of users.

  • Ensure access is granted only to users who meet both the device type permissions and the user segment criteria.


Setup Instructions

To get started, from within the web browser, navigate to Admin Portal > Security > Mobile Access.

Toggle the User Access Restriction setting to ON.

Choose the specific user segment you wish to allow mobile access. Only users within this segment will be able to authenticate into the mobile apps.

In the same section, check the Device Access Permissions settings. Ensure that the appropriate device types (iPhone, Android, iPad) are enabled.

Once this access restriction configured, users must meet both the device type and segment restrictions to gain mobile access.


Dynamic Segment Support

If you use a dynamic user segment, MangoApps evaluates access permissions in real-time during login.

This means:

  • No manual updates needed when user roles or attributes change.

  • Access remains aligned with your organization’s current policies automatically.


Best Practices

  • Use static segments for tightly controlled mobile access groups.

  • Use dynamic segments when access needs to reflect real-time organizational changes.

  • Regularly review both device and segment permissions for optimal security.
