Requirements:

  • Firm issued account
  • Access to the firm's resources hosted in Microsoft's Office 365 services
  • An Android device

Overview:


Enrollment is the process of adding the firm's management policies to your device, allowing it to access firm email, files, and apps. This enrollment will ensure that firm data is secured on your device, while keeping your personal information on your device private. The enrollment process is done by the user through the Company Portal app. These instructions will guide you through the enrollment process for your Android device.

NOTE: With these mobile management policies, email will no longer be accessible from your device's native email client. If you had previously added your firm account to your device in this manner, it will need to be removed. For instructions on how to do this, as provided by an outside group, please see these instructions: Removing Email Accounts

Firm Account Information:

Username: this is your email address (NOTE: [email protected], for Wealth Management staff please use [email protected] as your username. Your emails will still come from @smithhowardwelath.com)

Password: your Windows/ network logon password

New Security Requirements for Your Device:

Your device will be required to meet minimum firm requirements for security once it is enrolled. If your device does not currently meet these requirements, it will prompt you to make any necessary changes during the enrollment. These requirements may also apply to any watches or wearables linked to your device. Some common security settings that will be changed include:

  • A 6-digit (or stronger) PIN will be required for your device and any linked watches
  • Notifications will only show information on an unlocked device
