[ipad] VShare

[Jawloms]

We've rolled out hundreds of iPads to our students, and loads of them are installing VShare. We manage our iPads using Lightspeed. Any ideas how we prevent the kids from doing it?

 

Thank you

What exactly is vShare? The website is blocked here so I suspect something not so good.

It's an app which the kids can install without going through the AppStore as we've removed this (so long as they change the date on their iPad) which then enables them to install more apps through it - games etc.

How do the kids go about installing the app?

You go to VShare.com and click the icon to install it. Obviously we can filter it within school, but not while they're at home.
