Apple releases Configurator for managing iOS devices from a Mac
Apple has released a new Mac app named Configurator for managing groups of iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices for schools, businesses or other institutions.
The new app lets groups centrally setup new devices, install custom apps, update iOS software, backup and restore app data and settings, configure group settings (such as VPN or WiFi network credentials) and policies (such as setting minimum password policies, turning off Location Services or setting Parental Control-style restrictions) and personalize devices with specified data and documents (such as adding a group calendar).
