Re: [CODE4LIB] Deep Freeze functionality on tablets

[Gary Thompson]

Here's some information from Jonathan at UCLA. He didn't want to post to 
the list himself (I'll have to work on that), but will be happy to talk 
to you if you want more info.

--Gary

We also use Deep Freeze on our laptops. We lend iPads as well, but no other 
models. There is no Deep Freeze equivalent for iOS.

It*was*  possible to set up a computer running Apple Configurator to 
automatically erase and re-configure an iPad when it was plugged in, but that 
feature is basically deprecated and is not possible with Configurator v2, which 
is now the only version Apple offers. So, a non-starter in my opinion.

I do use Configurator to supervise the lending iPads, which allows you to 
install a configuration profile that locks down many aspects of the OS, such as 
signing into services (eg iCloud) or installing/deleting any of the apps. Once 
the iPad is in supervised-mode, there's a wealth of restrictions you can set. 
We typically erase and re-configure every quarter, and multiple people share 
the iPads during the quarter without it being a problem.

We also have some iPads set up as informational or lookup kiosks that are 
locked into single-app mode. All content is presented through an app called 
Kiosk Pro, and it's not possible to exit out of it, even if you power off the 
iPad. If you wanted to restrict access to web browsing, this could be an option.

Hope that helps!

Cedar Rapids public had a pretty good system for wiping their android

very popular but they had a pretty good loss rate.  I don't remember
the process exactly but the tablets did cycle through IT to get
reimaged.  They had a dedicated computer and would plug them in and
then run some scripts.  I’m pretty sure the turnaround was less than a
day.  I think Patrick Duggan from CRPD could give you the details.
They also came up some custom cases that the tablets were lent with.
