User Messages

Managed Android Enterprise devices can display a message on the lock screen. This makes it easier to identify the device or can be used for a contact option in case of loss. In addition, a short and a long support message can be configured, which are displayed as a pop-up in the system settings, for example, when a locked setting is accessed.
