admin.google.com and Enterprise.google.com Domain account Merge
Hey Everyone! Recently found out that we are using multiple google.ca tenants to manage some on prem machines (chrome os and browser), going to do a Domain validation for our Zero touch portal (enterprise.google.com) and just wanted to verify what's going to happen once we complete the Merge of domain accounts. Since these seems to be completely separate admin consoles, how do we know which one will be kept and what wont? what is required to migrate over without any impact? So I guess a few questions; How are the two tenants linked in any way?Admin.google.com and Enterprise.google.com What happens if there are two tenants and we merge, which one it kept? since we are doing the validation on the Enterprise.google.com site, nothing mentioned the Admin portal impact. Very confused on this whole situation, documentation does not mention if someone else has already configured and using another admin console and the proper way to perform a domain validation. thanks in advance!**CLOSED**[Survey] End of Year Customer Success Programs Feedback

PiP Mode Not Working in Lock Task (Kiosk) Mode – Any Official Support or Workaround?
Hi everyone, I’m from ManageEngine MDM, and we’ve observed that Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode does not work when a device is in Lock Task (Kiosk) mode. In our deployments, the device is configured as Device Owner, and we use DevicePolicyManager#setLockTaskPackages() to enable kiosk mode. However, when an app attempts to enter PiP using enterPictureInPictureMode(), it does not function while Lock Task mode is active. We are receiving multiple customer requests for this capability, particularly for use cases such as: Video conferencing apps running in PiP while a primary kiosk app remains in the foreground Monitoring/streaming apps that require PiP overlay within a controlled kiosk environment Enterprise-dedicated devices that require limited multitasking We would appreciate clarification on the following: Is PiP intentionally restricted in Lock Task mode by design? Is there any supported approach to enable PiP while maintaining kiosk restrictions? Are there any planned API enhancements to support this in enterprise (Device Owner) scenarios? Any insights, guidance, or recommended best practices would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Samsung Smart Switch Not Working After Enrolling Device in Android Management API (Device Owner Mode , new devices not old - samsung A07)
Hello, I have built a device management system using Android Management API. Devices are enrolled in Device Owner mode. After enrolling Samsung devices (especially newer models like Samsung A07), I noticed that Samsung Smart Switch does not work anymore. On older Samsung devices, Smart Switch works even after enrollment. But on newer Samsung devices, Smart Switch does not work once the device is enrolled as Device Owner. I am not using any third-party MDM solutions only Android Management API. My questions: Is Samsung Smart Switch blocked automatically when a device is enrolled in Device Owner mode? Is this expected behavior on newer Samsung devices? Is there any policy configuration that allows Smart Switch to function while still using Device Owner mode? Is this a Samsung restriction or an Android Enterprise restriction? warning screen shot is I would appreciate any clarification on this behavior. Thank you.How to apply for Google Device Lock Controller?
