Deploying own ipa files since IOS8 - App already installed issue

Hello,

I was talking about this issue already in december with our sophos reseller, and they told me that this is an apple issue sophos can´t handle. But this is not an option as we are getting more and more trouble with our in-house app.

Problem is that ipad devices running IOS 8.x with our inhouse-app can´t be updated anymore, the command fails with "app already installed" (See picture). Even if the app is deleted from the device, the problem remains. Only a fresh device allows exactly one install of the App, but no further updates.

This seems to be a security fix apple installed within IOS 8.x and the bundle identifier and is a known problem for own developed apps. A competitor offers a workaround for this issue:

I hope there will be something similar from sophos too? Otherwise I have to inform our CEO, as this issue has already reached higher grounds.

Thanks in advance
