Understand app protection access requirements

The Access requirements settings allow you to configure the PIN and credential requirements that users must meet to access apps in a work context. As the admin, you can control whether to use a PIN for app access, require work or school account credentials for access, and how often to recheck access requirements.

The Access requirement settings only apply to iOS/iPadOS and Android app protection policies.
