Check

Review configuration settings to confirm the use of assistants has been disabled.

This check procedure is performed on the device management tool and the Zebra Android 14 device.

On the MDM console:

COBO and COPE:

1. Open user restrictions. 2. Verify that "Disallow assist content" is enabled. 3. Verify that the Gemini App in the Managed Google Play Store has not been added to the allowlist.

On the managed Zebra Android 14 device:

1. Try to invoke the Zebra Assistant and note that it will not execute. 2. Verify that the Gemini app is not installed and is not listed in the Managed Google Play Store.

If the use of assistants has not been disabled, this is a finding.

Note: This control also disables Gemini from being invoked if it was previously installed.

Fix

Configure the Zebra Android 14 device to disable the use of all assistants.

On the MDM console, do the following:

COBO and COPE:

1. Open user restrictions. 2. Enable "Disallow assist content". 3. Do not allowlist the Gemini app in the Managed Google Play Store.

Note: This control also disables Gemini from being invoked if it was previously installed.
