HID Mobile Access v4.5.0

Dear Customers,

HID are pleased to announce a planned enhancement to HID Origo Management Portal with the introduction of a new Mobile Access feature. Within the Organization Settings menu, specifically under the "Mobile Access App Features" section, administrators will have the ability to enable or disable Padlock and Twist & Go functionality. This will allow centralized control of these HID Mobile Access application related functions at the organizational level.

While these additions are primarily aimed at facilitating greater control at the organizational level, we would like to highlight the fact that integrators and partners can also leverage this new feature in order to tailor solutions according to their unique application needs.

Please note that although this feature is scheduled to be implemented in the HID Origo Management Portal from April 04, 2024 (Release version 8.35.9) onwards, the functionality will align with HID Mobile Access App 4.5.0, which is expected to be released at the 18th of April 2024 (tentatively).

New features and enhancements (Release notes)

Android & iOS:

• Enhanced Policy Enforcement for the Twist & Go and Nearby Reader features. These settings allow Organization administrators within the HID Origo Management Portal to manage the Twist & Go and Padlock options (located under the Nearby Reader section in the HID Mobile Access App).
• Improved notification functionality. Outside of the app, users now receive notifications related to app permissions. Note: This feature is controlled from within the app Settings, and is disabled by default.
• Provides various additional enhancements and issue resolutions.

Android:

• Added a new Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section under Settings, making it easier for users to find answers to their questions and receive assistance.

• Device model details are now displayed on the About screen and included in the Support email.
