Jamf Parent Setup Instructions
How to get started with the Parent app.
1. Download the JAMF Parent app from the App Store or Google Play Store.
4. Find the QR code
When you open the app on the Student's iPad, if a QR code does not automatically appear, then click on the settings wheel and Authorise Parent.
5. Point YOUR personal device's camera at the QR Code on your STUDENT's iPad
NOTE: This QR Code only works for ONE JAMF Parent app scan. To add the STUDENT device to another JAMF Parent app, close the QR code on the STUDENT device and follow step 4 again for a new QR Code to be generated.
NOTE: Restrictions will not be allowed through the JAMF Parent app during school hours, 8:00am - 3:00pm on Monday - Friday.
Restrict Device Functionality
Allows you to hide certain Apple apps from the student device.
1. Tap Restrict Device Functionality.
2. Toggle the ON/OFF switch next to the app you would like to turn OFF.
3. To allow the app back, toggle the ON/OFF switch back to ON.
NOTE: Some apps have already been restricted to OFF at the school level.
Enable App Lock
Allows you to set a time for app restrictions. While your student's device is in App Lock, they will only be able to use the apps you allow during a specified time.
NOTE: If you only allow ONE app, that app will launch on your student's device and they cannot exit the app until the App Lock time ends.
1. Tap Enable App Lock.
2. Set the timer and tap the apps you want your student to have access to (a check mark will appear next to the apps you select).
3. To turn off the App Lock before time ends, tap Disable App Lock in JAMF Parent.
