BYOD Frequently Asked Questions

Can IT administrators see my personal photos and messages?

No. SureMDM creates a separate work profile that only contains work-related data. Your personal information stays private and completely separate from work data.

What happens if I lose my device?

If your device is lost or stolen, IT can remotely wipe only the work profile, leaving your personal data untouched. This protects company information while preserving your private content.

Will BYOD drain my battery faster?

The impact on battery life is minimal. The work profile only runs when you're actively using it, and you can switch it off outside work hours.

Do I need to install multiple apps for work and personal use?

No. With SureMDM's work profile, you can have separate instances of the same app - one for work and one for personal use. They run on their own and don't share data.

What if I leave the company?

When you leave, IT can remove the work profile from your device without affecting your personal apps and data. The process is quick and preserves all your private information.

Will BYOD affect my device's performance?

SureMDM is designed to have minimal impact on device performance. The work profile uses resources efficiently and only when needed.
