Hello everyone,
this might be a stupid question but I hope for your patience :)
My main goal is to maintain separate private and business contact lists on smartphones.
For Android that's rather simple: as soon as Android for work is enabled and a work profile is created, I can install two copies of the Android contacts app, one for private, one for business. I can even install MS Outlook for Android and Office 365 contacts can be synced with the business contact app.
If someone calls, the caller identity is shown regardless if it's a business or a private contact.
But I'm struggling to get to a similar setup using iOS.
Maybe that's just not possible, maybe I just don't know how.
I created an iOS profile in MDM, setting certain iOS restrictions and tried several combinations:
- Share data from managed apps to unmanaged apps
- Allow managed apps to save contacts in unmanaged accounts
- Allow unmanaged apps to access managed contacts
- Share data from unmanaged apps to managed apps
Then I added Outlook and OneDrive to the MDM App Repository.
Doing so, I can install Outlook and OneDrive for iOS. Business contacts show up in Outlook only, if I try to enable contact sync in Outlook, it fails due to missing permissions.
Caller identification doesn't work, so if a business contact calls, the name is not shown.
Any attempt to save e.g. a picture in OneDrive fails, as OneDrive is not offered for sharing.
I cannot install the Contacts app a second time for business contacts, because AppStore thinks it's already installed...
I feel I'm missing something here. Can someone pont me in the right direction, please?
Thanks,
