Configure Personalized Lock Screen using Live Activities

NOTE: Applies to iOS devices only.

This feature allows administrators to automatically add the Device User name and other information to the device Lock Screen, so that identifying information is displayed without the user needing to unlock the device.

  • This is the preferred method of configuring the device Lock Screen to display the user name, instead of the Set Wallpaper workflow action.

  • After configuring this feature, users will see the change in Locker behavior after the next checkin and checkout.

Supported iOS Workflow Models

  • iOS Express Checkout

  • DEP

  • non-DEP

Behavior

  • At checkout, the user is prompted to allow Live Activities on the device. Live Activities launches Imprivata Locker.

    NOTE:

    If the user taps Don't allow at the Live Activities prompt, the feature will not work and the user will not be prompted to re-enable or allow. This is a one-time prompt; it will not appear at each checkout.

    Live Activities can be re-enabled in Settings.

  • The lock screen of the checked out device displays the Device User name, and additional optional attributes.

    If you also configured the Overdue Devices feature, the device displays a dynamically updated timer indicating the remaining device lending period.

  • When the user returns the device, the Check In Workflow is run, clearing the Live Activities is from the device.

  • If the user swipes left on the Live Activity from the lock screen and dismisses the Live Activity, opening Imprivata Locker re-initiates Live Activity the next time the device locks.

  • Tapping the Live Activity opens the Imprivata Locker app.

Requirements

Take note of the following prerequisites:

  • Requires that your MAM organization be enabled for Check Out.

Configure Personalized Lock Screen Settings

NOTE:

Supported in MAM 7.3 UAT.

Requirements

  • Imprivata Locker 4.3 (or later) on iOS devices.

To configure the Personalized Lock Screen feature:

  1. In the MAM console, navigate to Admin > Check Out > Personalized Lock Screen.

    For new customers, the Personalized Lock Screen setting is switched ON by default. If you do not wish to use the feature, switch Personalized Lock Screen to OFF.

  2. Click Configure.

    1. In the Name section, select the format of the username to display.

    2. In the Attributes section, specify up to three attributes to display on the Lock Screen.

      IMPORTANT:

      You must add the Imprivata Display Name as one of the attributes, so it matches the attribute [Imprivata Display Name] in the setting Text to display when unlocked in your Check Out workflow.

    3. Switch the Lending period setting to ON to display a count down timer indicating the time left until device is overdue.

  3. Click Save.
