new ios12 restrictions

Has anyone else noticed that if you set either of the following new ios12 restrictions to false, the device reports back that they are set to true on the device settings >> general >> profiles area


allowManagedToWriteUnmanagedContacts

allowUnmanagedToReadManagedContacts


Same thing happens with mdm or apple configurator

Seems like apple's logic is backwards on these 2 restrictions


Thanks

Yes, that seems to be true in the just released 16A366 Build. Setting both to <false /> does show them as allowed on the device.


However, I think this may just be a cosmetic error. When I disabled the allowUnmanagedToReadManagedContacts, it does indeed seem to work, i.e., unmanaged app could not read my managed contacts.

Same behaviour here, it seems to be backwards.

Please can you confirm if


allowManagedToWriteUnmanagedContacts

allowUnmanagedToReadManagedContacts


Worked for you? Is so how was it deployed?


we have Blackberry UEM deployed with their suite of Dynamic apps - and the email client still does not sync contacts when these settings are deployed.


Blackberry have raised this with Apple directly since they claim there is a bug in Apple's payloads. Apple have yet to respond.


Thanks
