SkieWhat does Skie not suit?
Skie does not suit iPhones and iPads, personal phones that cannot be reset, firms that need remote screen control, single sign-on or an open interface today, or anyone expecting hardware or a SIM from Skie. It suits organisations that hand out Android 12 or newer devices to people who should use only approved apps.
A fair answer helps you decide faster, so here it is plainly.
Skie manages Android only. If your staff carry iPhones, Skie cannot help, and a mixed-platform MDM is the right tool. It requires Android 12 or newer, and each device must be freshly set up or reset once to become managed. If people insist on using their own personal phones without a reset, full control is not possible. The work profile approach is not in the current product.
Several things are not available yet: remote screen view or remote support, single sign-on, an open interface for your own systems, white labelling, private app files and automatic push install, per-app time limits and screen time reports, per-website allow or block lists, and bulk upload of users. The team is working on a number of these, and gives no dates.
Skie is software only. It does not sell phones or tablets, and it does not include a mobile plan or SIM. You use your own devices and carrier. It does not read messages and has no hidden mode, so if you are looking for a spy tool or message monitoring, this is not it.
Where it fits well: businesses, schools, hostels and families that give out Android phones or tablets for a defined job and want the rules enforced by Android itself, with a locked web filter, location, roles and lost-device tools. If that is you, run a pilot. If it is not, the entries on choosing an MDM can help you pick something else.
