Daily Intune NewsTwo Message Center plans dominate the week: Intune will require iOS/iPadOS 18 or later after Apple releases iOS/iPadOS 27, and will support macOS 15 or later after macOS Golden Gate 27 releases later this year. Documentation updates mainly clarify operational guidance around device sync, registry-inventory risk, and Android Management API reporting. Two endpoint-security page edits changed only metadata dates and show no product or administrator impact.
Intune · App managementA Message Center Plan for Change says Intune will require iOS/iPadOS 18 or higher after Apple releases iOS/iPadOS 27 later this year. Administrators should check device compatibility and Intune reports; userless devices enrolled through Automated Device Enrollment have specific OS-version requirements. Intune controls can be used to manage OS versions.
Intune · Device enrollmentAfter macOS Golden Gate 27 releases this year, Intune will support macOS 15 and later. Devices running macOS 14.x or below will remain enrolled, but new enrollments on those versions will not be allowed. Organizations should identify and upgrade affected devices before the change.
The updated Sync guidance says selecting Sync triggers multiple workloads, including policy processing, app state updates, scripts, and remediations. Progress can be monitored in the Device sync status tab, and the guidance applies to iOS/iPadOS and Windows devices. The documented improvements require the Preview new device view toggle in the Intune admin center.
Intune · Device configurationThe Collect Device Properties update states that registry key inventory uses existing Device Inventory permissions and may expose sensitive device configuration information. Microsoft identifies this as an accepted risk and calls for review of the related security and privacy implications.
Intune · Device enrollmentThe updated overview directs administrators to the Personal Devices on Android Management API report under Devices > Monitor. It also clarifies that this reporting is not shown in the policy’s device assignment status or in the device configuration tab.
Prioritize compatibility inventory and upgrade planning for affected iOS/iPadOS and macOS devices, including the specific requirements for userless devices enrolled through Automated Device Enrollment. For the documented sync improvements, enable Preview new device view and monitor the Device sync status tab. Review access to registry inventory and its security and privacy implications, and use the named Android Management API report under Devices > Monitor. No action is indicated for the metadata-only endpoint-security updates.
This period briefing was generated by AI from the tracked Microsoft Learn and Message Center changes.

The sync behavior and Device sync status tab are documented as applying to Windows and iOS/iPadOS devices, rather than Windows only. The Preview new device view toggle remains required to see the described improvements.
The sync documentation now explains that selecting Sync triggers multiple workloads, including policy processing, app state updates, and scripts/remediations. Admins can monitor progress in the Device sync status tab. This behavior applies to iOS/iPadOS and Windows devices.
