I was asked recently to explain exactly what eGate is. eGate is an MDM (mobile device management) software for Android devices. There are many, many MDM solutions available, but eGate stands out from the competition in 2 ways.
No monthly fee. Almost every other MDM product comes with a monthly subscription. eGate, by comparison, uses the perpetual license model, and can be bought here.
Designed for a high degree of flexibility in how to lock undesirable features on Android devices. You can block individual apps, you can block video player controls, and we are working on features to block undesirable parts of apps like communities on WhatsApp. A full list of features is available here: https://payhip.com/b/vxf1i
So i skimmed through the original thread about installing it on flip phones. Seems like this would work for an android device as well should i want to disable every app aside for waze and or google maps. In short, should i want to create a so called waze device i ahould be able to block everything and leave open the select few apps, while not having to pay yearly like the mb smart which charges yearly. Unless this is designed for flip phones specifically?
hey I’m a bit confused how to use this site, but I have your filter on my qin and I cant seem to get Gmail to work properly, I have excluded it from the list of apps that are blocked from WebView, but for some reason any time I try to compose an email, it shuts down. also, when I try just opening some emails, it shuts down
Turn on the debug accessiblity filter option, restart your phone, and when it closes an app it should display a notification saying which package name triggered it. Then you can make sure you have the package names you need added to the exceptions list.
perfect - thanks and I have the 1.13 version - I installed the APK for 1.14 - but how do I make it that that’s what the phone uses? the app still shows 1.13
