^{Example: Creating an iOS Enterprise App}

Additionally, for iOS you can configure whether or not the user should be able to remove the app manually from the device, and if the backup of the app data should be prevented. These options are only available for iOS.
The file extension for iOS apps is .ipa, .apk for Android. .xap, appx or .appxbundle for Windows and .pkg for macOS
A unique filename will be generated, which will be used when it is uploaded to your management servers for distribution.
