perfect business tool.

SituationOver a billion people today carry Android smartphones—devices that are more powerful than the computers we used just a few years ago.

For many, these phones have become essential tools to help us complete important work tasks like checking email, editing documents, reviewing sales pipelines and approving deals.

But for the majority of workers, smartphones and tablets are underutilized in the workplace. Their business and innovation potential remain largely untapped.

Android for Work

• Today Google has announced the Android for Work program to tap into that potential. With a group of partners, we're helping businesses bring more devices to work by securing, managing and innovating on the Android platform.

Work profiles

We’ve built on the default encryption, enhanced SELinuxsecurity enforcement and multi-user support in Android 5.0, Lollipop to create a dedicated work profile that isolates and protects work data.

IT can deploy approved work apps right alongside their users personal apps knowing their sensitive data remains secured. People can use their personal apps knowing their employer only manages work data and won’t erase or view their personal content.

Android for Work features four key technology components:

Android for Work app

For devices running Ice Cream Sandwich through Kitkat, or that don’t run work profiles natively, we’ve created the Android for Work app.

The app, which delivers secure mail, calendar, contacts, documents, browsing and access to approved work apps, can be completely managed by IT.

Google Play for Work

It allows businesses to securely deploy and manage apps across all users running Android for Work, simplifying the process of distributing apps to employees and ensures that IT approves every deployed app.

Built-in productivity tools

For everyday business tasks, we’ve created a suite of business apps for email, contacts and calendar, which supports both Exchange and Notes and provides document editing capabilities for documents, spreadsheets and presentations.

Consistent management

Enterprise mobility management (EMM) providers integrate with standardized management APIs to create a simple way to manage all Android devices, new and old, from one dashboard.

All Android for Work capabilities are delivered through EMM partners, with more providers available soon.

Secure business apps

Software vendors and developers can create a single version of any Google Play app that can be securely deployed to any Android device without alterations or wrapping.

And they can create standard management configurations that allow IT to apply policies per app.

Innovative Devices

• Android smartphone and tablet makers are a key part of the Android for Work program, as they create devices and experiences that add additional value for customers.

Freedom of Choice

Together with a wide range of management, application and device makers, we believe the Android for Work program provides businesses and workers with the choice and flexibility they need to get things done at work.

Backward Compatibility

For older devices, Google still offers a somewhat similar experience through its Android for Work app, which is available now.

While Lollipop supports Android for Work by default (or at least allows vendors to enable it), users on older devices (from the Ice Cream Sandwich release up) will have to rely on this app.

How to Manage

• For the employee, using Android for Work means it’s easy to seamlessly switch between apps on the device, while IT admins still get full control over policies, profiles and the business data on the device.

• Applications that are part of their Work Profile will be highlighted by a small icon on top of the app icon, but except for that, the app will work just as expected and will be integrated into the overall Android user experience.

• Admins also get a managed version of Google Play that allows them to manage and distribute pre-approved applications.
