If you are using Single App Mode in the enterprise, you are going to want to test 11.2b3. For iOS admins it is a pain to update an app while it's launched, locked and running. Well, now (and if you use an OTA MDM) this just got SOOOO much easier.

You can now update the application while it's in Guided Access/Single App Mode, without having to drop the profile, update and relaunch. Sa-weet. Again, with an MDM ... it's as simple as just updating the application. Some MDM's will auto update for you. Hands-free **sigh** "I'm in heaven".

PS ... if you are wi-fi only shops, you should be using ASAM (vs. SAM) which this seems to work for as well.
