Installation Guide: Deploy Movius for BlackBerry using Good Control

This document describes the necessary steps for setting up Movius for BlackBerry to work within a Good EMM environment. 

These steps should be performed by the BlackBerry administrator before Movius for BlackBerry MultiLine administrators can begin adding users in the Management Portal and must be performed before users can successfully activate the apps. 

Info

Note: This guide covers important settings that allow the Movius for BlackBerry app to work correctly and to ensure your organization is able to enforce your compliance policies. It isn't a complete guide to all settings in BlackBerry Good Control, for that see BlackBerry Good Control documentation.

Step 1: Configure the policy set for Movius for BlackBerry users

For all instructions in this section, you'll be in the Policies > Policy Sets > BlackBerry Work section of BlackBerry Good Control.

Disable use of Native Phone

To prevent users from making calls or SMS on their native phone number and restrict use to Movius for BlackBerry, you need to uncheck the option in the Policy Set:

  1. To add or edit a policy set, go to Policy Sets under Policies
  2. On the Manage Policy Set screen, go to Apps >App Specific Policies > BlackBerry Work.
  3. Go to the Interoperability tab.
  4. In the Voice and SMS categories, deselect permissions to use native phone features and select options to use VOIP apps. Note: while Movius for BlackBerry is not a VOIP-only app, but this setting allows the app to be used for calls. 
  5. Click Update.

Set up sync to the Exchange Server

Use these settings to allow Movius for BlackBerry to access their Exchange Contacts inside the Movius for BlackBerry app. 

Movius for BlackBerry will not upload, store, or transmit the Exchange contacts. The sync will only allow the display and use of the contacts by the user within the app locally. 

  1. To add or edit a policy set, go to Policy Sets under Policies
  2. On the Manage Policy Set screen, go to Apps >App Specific Policies > BlackBerry Work.
  3. Go to the Basic Configuration tab.
  4. Complete the fields for Exchange ActiveSync Settings, including Default. Domain, ActiveSync Server, and Autodiscover URLNote: Completing the Autodiscover URL allows users to sync to the server without manually filling in server details.

Step 2: Add new users

Use these steps if the users' email addresses are in the accepted domains. Otherwise use the next steps for Add custom users, instead.

  1. Go to Users and Groups
  2. Click Add Users
  3. There are two ways to add users:

    2. Otherwise, add a custom user
      1. Fill in the Email Address, First Name, and Last Name fields, then click Submit
  4. Select from the list to change to the desired policy set. Refer to BlackBerry documentation for instructions on custom policy sets.
  5. Click the edit pencil for App Groups to select the ones that you've set up for your Movius for BlackBerry users from the list, and click OK.

  2. Click the plus icon to create a new group.
  3. Click Members then Add to add people to the app group.
