Intune-managed apps (managed apps for short) are apps that've been configured for you to securely use at work or school. They're specially configured to meet your organization's security requirements and protect internal data. For example, if you're signed sign in to one of these apps with your work or school account, your org can restrict certain features, such as copy and paste. Or they could restrict you from saving work files to your device's local storage. These types of restrictions prevent proprietary information from being shared outside of the app or org.
To maximize data protection, your organization might configure several of these apps to work together. For example:
- You connect to your organization's network in a managed browser app, such as Microsoft Edge.
- You click a link to open a peer's presentation file.
- An appropriate managed app, such as Microsoft PowerPoint, opens the file.
Your org can require you to use a specific app to do something like opening a work file, or accessing a web link. If you don't have the app, you might not be able to do these things.
Apple Volume Purchase Program agreement
Your organization maymight purchase iOS app licenses in bulk to accommodate the number of students or employees they have. If prompted to, review and accept the Apple Volume Purchase Program agreement to install the app.

What can my org manage in an app?
The following list describes the settings your IT support person can control withinin an app. These settings affect how you view, access, and otherwise use work or school data on your device:
- Access to specific websites
- Transfers of data between apps
Approve line-of-business app
By default, your device doesn't trust line-of-business (LOB) apps acquired outside of the App Store, which maymight prevent your organization's own company apps from being installed. You'll know this is happening if you open an installed LOB app and receive an untrusted enterprise developer message.
