Publishing App to iOS Homescreen from Intune

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by nbarsley 6

I'm looking for some best practices around PowerApps and Intune. Our users like using the 'Pin to home' option in iOS. Unfortunately its difficult to roll out and train users how to set up their apps on their home screen. Is there anyway to create these home screen shortcuts in Intune? I've run into two issues. 
1. I cannot create a ms-apps:/// link in Intune because the addresses are restricted to HTTP/s. 
2. If I use the universal link https://web.powerapps.com/apps/<appid> the app opens in Safari instead of the PowerApps native app. 
Does anyone have any advice?

    Hi @nbarsley,

     

    First of all, I just tested and it's not that difficult to pin an app on home screen. It takes only 2 steps:

    For the 1st question, you need to add an idea in Intune feedback page:

    For the 2nd one, I assume that you are using iOS, then select ellipsis and "Open in Safari", you will be redirected to PowerApps application directly.

     

    Regards,
