Content
MaaS360 makes the iOS app version 3.7 beta available to download/upgrade from the App Store on September 11, 2018.
The MaaS360 for iOS app version 3.7 includes the following applications:
- MaaS360 core app
- MaaS360 Secure Mail
- MaaS360 Docs
- MaaS360 Calendar
MaaS360 for iOS (core app) Enhancements
MaaS360 revamps the Settings UI to granularly break down general and notification settings for Mail, Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks under separate screens. Previously, all the sections were available in different sections on the same screen. Also, the Logout option for shared devices is removed from User Info screen and added at the bottom of the Settings screen.
Deep links for MaaS360 enterprise app catalog >>
MaaS360 adds support for deep links, allowing the users to directly navigate to the detail view of an application in the enterprise app catalog by just tapping an URL from a different app. For example, IT staff can create and send a custom URL to the download page of a VPN application.
Support to update individual certificates on a device >>
MaaS360 now allows administrators to update a single certificate or multiple certificates on devices that are enrolled in the MaaS360 Portal that use the Persona policy. In the previous releases, if one certificate was expired/revoked, administrators had to regenerate all the certificates.
MaaS360 Secure Mail
Print action moved out of Reply menu >>
MaaS360 moves the Print action under the 
icon in the top right corner in the mail view. Previously, the Print action was a part of the Reply menu.
Support to restrict synchronization of email drafts >>
In the previous releases, MaaS360 added support for two-way synchronization of email drafts with the mail servers that support EAS (Exchange Activesync) protocol version 16 and above. In this release, MaaS360 adds support to disable the synchronization of drafts. Note: When the sync is turned off, the email drafts are removed from the MaaS360 app without deleting the drafts on the server. Users can turn on the draft sync anytime to resync drafts from the server.
Restriction on outgoing emails sent to external domains >>
MaaS360 adds support to allow administrators to restrict outgoing emails to corporate domains. Based on the type of restriction, the outgoing emails to external domains are blocked or a warning message is displayed.
Exchange ActiveSync 16.1 support >>
In the previous releases, MaaS360 added support for EAS (Exchange ActiveSync) protocol version 16. In this release, MaaS360 adds support for Exchange ActiveSync version 16.1. With the latest version, MaaS360 offers enhanced email and calendar features. Note: The upgrade will cause the emails, calendar, and contacts to resync, so those features will be unavailable for a brief period of time during the resync.
Support for custom mailto: links >>
MaaS360 adds support for custom mailto: links, allowing the users to activate the Secure Mail app from any of the apps for sending an email. When the users click the custom mailto: link, MaaS360 opens the New Message screen with the recipients, subject, and body text already filled in for them.
Support to manually download full message >>
MaaS360 now allows the users to manually download the full message when emails with broken links and missing CSS are received.
Support to send diagnostic logs to intended recipients >>
MaaS360 removes the hardcoded MaaS360 support email address from the MaaS360 for iOS app, leaving the To field open to the discretion of the users. With this support, users can forward the MaaS360 logs to administrators or the MaaS360 support team.
MaaS360 Docs
Support to access AD RMS-protected documents through multiple email accounts >>
MaaS360 adds support to access Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS) protected documents through managed email accounts: primary email account, secondary email account, enrolled email account, or OneDrive/Office 365 SharePoint source. In the previous releases, the protected documents were accessed only through the primary email account.
MaaS360 Calendar
Support to respond to meeting invites without notifying the organizer >>
MaaS360 now allows users to respond to the meeting invites without notifying the organizer. Supported for all three actions: Accept, Maybe, Decline from both calendar and mail views. Heads up: When a user accepts/declines a meeting without sending a response, the meeting is recorded in the user's personal calendar, but the organizer is unaware of the response. Also, the attendance is not registered on the organizer's calendar, so the organizer cannot track those meeting responses.
Support to propose a new meeting time >>
MaaS360 adds support to allow users to propose a new meeting time if the meeting invitation conflicts with another meeting on their calendar. Note: Supported only for Decline and Maybe actions.
Support for custom recurrence pattern >>
MaaS360 Calendar now supports custom recurring patterns, allowing the users to create events with custom recurrence intervals. Previously, users had to select from the default recurring intervals. For example, users can create events such as repeat once in 26 weeks on Thursday or repeat every 88th day, instead of weekly or monthly.
Misc
32-bit architecture support deprecation >>
The MaaS360 iOS v3.7 app (currently in the App Store) will be the last version that will support 32-bit architecture.
