Switch between accounts in Android Play Store

Hi Ibrahim,

Thanks for reaching out to the Sophos Community Forum. 

You can find out more about Android Enterprise and Managed Google Play accounts in the following article. When browsing for documentation regarding this, I suggest looking for the articles relevant to Android Enterprise specifically, as the general documentation will not apply.

it is not possible to utilize a personal Google account with Android Enterprise unless you are using the "Work Profile" enrollment method. When using the Full Device management mode, the device is owned and managed by the organization.

If you have a Google Domain, it may be possible to assign users within your domain to devices, however, this still does not allow a personal google account to be used with the Google Play store on a managed device.

Good day!

Thank you very much for your answer. I want to make it possible for the employees to install their private Apps and some of these Apps are paid! There is no way that they install these paid stuff from play store with their own IDs and own money at all if the device is in the Full Device management mode? Why is that not possible? Did Google disable this feature or Sophos? 


Many thanks

Ibrahim

The framework for what settings and options are available is defined by Google. Sophos Mobile is only the MDM layer that interacts with the options and actions Google makes available. 

You can find out more about the features that Google makes available for MDM vendors on the following page.
