VMware Workspace ONE UEM Cloud 2206 has been available to shared SaaS customers since 26 July 2022. The rollout for shared SaaS environments is complete.

### What is new?

**Console**

-   VMware improved device wipe. Previously, certain BitLocker profile settings, such as "force encryption", could interfere with wiping a device reliably. With the improvements, enterprise wipe and enterprise reset now make sure a device is wiped as expected.
-   Devices running with no user signed in now send app samples back, so the software installed on a PC is reported correctly. Previously app samples were only sent while a user was signed in, which meant changes to the app inventory could be wrong.

**Android**

-   Managing zero-touch Android devices got simpler. You can now go to a separate Google portal to manage zero-touch devices. There, users can create and edit EMM configurations, search devices and manage portal access. The Android [enrolment page](https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Workspace-ONE-UEM/services/Android_Platform/GUID-AndroidEnrollmentEnrollmentConcept.html) has a zero-touch configuration page for linking and managing zero-touch settings.

**macOS**

-   Restoring a macOS 12 device is straightforward. You can now use a simple workflow to hand a used Mac to another user without wiping the whole disk and operating system. Users can run "Erase All Content and Settings" (EACS), just as on iOS, to [remove all user data and user-installed apps from the device](https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Workspace-ONE-UEM/services/macOS_Platform/GUID-macOSDeviceManagement.html#device-details-page-for-macos-devices) without reinstalling the operating system, and restore a macOS Monterey device easily.
-   Removing an app's system extension profile got easier. You can now remove an app's system extension without a local administrator authenticating. macOS 12 introduces a new key, RemovableSystemExtension, that lets the MDM administrator remove an app's system extensions.

**Freestyle**

-   VMware improved the workflow step messages. For troubleshooting, the workflow detail page and the per-step workflow messages in the device details have been improved. The error messages carry information about the cause and the components involved. Click the hyperlink to see a detailed message model for error messages that exceed the word limit.
