This post covers the steps to create a work profile for personal devices in Intune. Microsoft Intune allows you to create work profiles on our personal Android and IOS devices. This is done through an Integrated profile without modifying our applications and personal configurations.

Intune helps you deploy apps and settings to Android Enterprise work profile devices to make sure work and personal information are separate.

Let’s see how we can perform this procedure from the Microsoft Intune console. To know more about managing Android work profiles with Intune, read this post.

To configure platform restrictions and assign them to specific user groups, go to Registration Restrictions. Block enrollment of Android device administrators in enrollment restrictions if you only want users to sign up with Android Enterprise work profiles.
