Abstract
Apple Configurator 2 (AC2) is a free mass-deployment utility that allows you to update multiple iPads, iPhones, iPod Touch devices, and Apple TVs at the same time, including apps, website links, iBooks, and software updates.
Highlights
As with most Apple apps, Apple Configurator 2 (AC2) has to be downloaded from the iTunes store
An Apple volume purchase program (VPP) account is required to add apps using AC2— even if you are using only free apps [3]—though this requirement is not mentioned in the AC2 documentation
Once you have an account set up, you can go to the VPP website and purchase apps for your iPads; even free apps need to be “purchased.” Sign on to both VPP and AC2, so that apps ordered on VPP will automatically be added to the AC2 app folder
Summary
Apple Configurator 2 (AC2) [1] is a free mass-deployment utility that allows you to update multiple iPads, iPhones, iPod Touch devices, and Apple TVs at the same time, including apps, website links, iBooks, and software updates. Such a tool can be useful for libraries that lend iPads to their users. About ninetyfive free apps (in addition to preloaded Apple apps), thirty website icons, and various folders were installed using AC2 from a Master iPad backup. The iPads were “unsupervised,” which meant students could download their own apps and change settings if needed. It allows you to install PDFs, ePubs, and iBooks; restart or shutdown iOS devices; and restrict joining WiFi networks
