IBM MaaS360 Technical Touchpoint October 2026Welcome to the October 2026 Edition of the Monthly Touchpoint!

Hi, we’re excited to share the latest updates, enhancements, and highlights from October! Explore the recap below to see what’s new and discover the latest features and improvements designed to enhance your mobile device management experience.



Tip: Manually refresh outdated application detailsIf a public’s application version or metadata in the MaaS360 App Catalog does not match the latest store version, open the application’s App Summary page and select Refresh App Details. This does not necessarily force the application to update immediately on managed devices as it also depends on the settings set for each app.Learn More

Trick: Check device history before collecting logsThe history view can show whether the action is pending, failed, timed out, or completed. It may also display an error description, helping you determine whether the problem is with the device communication, policy evaluation, or installation before requesting logs. To do so, navigate in MaaS360 to the device record> Summary> History.Learn More

Apple Enhanced Log Collection with IBM MaaS360MaaS360 can remotely trigger enhanced diagnostics logging on supervised Apple Devices. The action requires an authorized token supplied by AppleCare support. Logs are collected with minimal physical access or user involvement and uploaded directly to Apple. Administrators can also cancel an active enhanced logging session from MaaS360.Learn More

Windows public apps Automatic Update featureMaaS360 introduces an Update Automatically setting for Microsoft Store apps in the App Catalog. This provides centralized control over app updates on managed Windows devices. When enabled, supported apps update silently in the background without user interaction.
