Auto-Lock not working in Single-App-Mode in iOS/iPadOS 15

Hi there

I'm using macOS Server (V5.11.1) with Profile Manager and Apple Configurator 2 (V2.15) to manage iPads and iPhones within our company.

All devices are running in Single-App-Mode (running a self-developed app). Further on all devices a auto-lock time of 2 minutes is configured.

Since we updated some of our devices to iPadOS 15 resp. iOS 15, the auto-lock stopped working. On older versions (like iPadOS 14.8) it is still working.

We already tried to solve the issue playing around with different settings - turned off "AssistiveTouch", "Guided Access", "Low power mode", "Focus", etc. but no effect.

Do you know if this is a known bug in iPadOS/iOS 15 or is it just a side effect of a new feature?

Thanks for your help! Rafael

Hi.

Can confirm that the bug is fixed in iPadOS 15.2

Facing same issue. Tried every possible settings but no luck. Issue is with Single App mode from MDM, Anonymous Single App (through app itself) & Guided Access as well.
