iPads & Paid for Apps.

[runcmd]

Currently we use Apple School Manager and Mosyle to push out free apps to our iPads.

 

We are in the process of buying VPP credits from Jigsaw24 and they are asking for our VPP email address to send vpp codes so I can access a Apple secure inbox. When trying to create a VPP account, my web searches have found that VPP accounts have been replaced with Apple School\Business Manager. Would the email address I use to admin our Apple School Manager be the one I use to receive the email with our VPP codes?

VPP codes arent really a thing anymore. Everything is now done via managed distribution. Most poeple use device assignment.

 

Distribute content with Apps and Books in Apple School Manager and Apple Business Manager – Apple Support (UK)

 

You will need to provide the email address you use to sign into Apple School Manager. VPP is now know as apps and books within ASM.

 

Edit: just to clarify because I think I may have misunderstoof buying credit is still a thing, its just apps that are distributed in a different way now.

They will ask for a email to send the credit code to where you can then redeem within asm to add the credit so you can purchase your apps.

Existing old VPP accounts can be invited by an ASM admin to create an content manager account in ASM.

@Chclark. @tmoon-mint Thanks. I've supplied Jigsaw24 with the email address that I use with my Apple School Manager so should be up and running soon. @Brimstone Thanks, I've only ever used Apple school Manager so no old accounts to invite.
