SkieCan insurance companies use Skie for agent phones and tablets?
Yes. An insurer can give agents phones or tablets limited to the sales and policy apps, maps and calls, with the Play Store hidden and a web filter on. Location can be switched on with consent. Skie controls the Android device; policy data and app sign-in stay with the insurer's own systems.
Insurance agents, surveyors and claims assessors work away from the office. Many of them carry the same tablet for proposals, e-signatures and photos of damage. The device is part of the sales process, so a loaded or lost device matters.
In Skie, group agents by region or product line, and attach an app list to each group. A claims surveyor group may need the camera and a maps app, while a sales group needs the proposal app and calls. Browser access can be off, restricted or allowed per group. Optional switches disable screenshots, SD card use and USB file transfer so customer photos stay inside approved apps.
Roles keep branches separate. A branch head sees their own agents. Head office sees all of them. A device keeps its history when it is reassigned, so you can say who held which tablet and when. If an agent leaves, reassign the device or use Remove Skie, which turns off every protection and releases ownership without deleting apps.
For lost devices, lost mode locks the tablet, shows a contact message, tracks location and produces an evidence file with IMEI, serial and SIM details. Remote erase is not available yet.
If agents use their own phones, the device needs a one-time reset to become managed, and many agents will not want that. In that case a company-issued low-cost Android tablet is usually simpler than trying to manage a personal handset.
