MD-102 Manage and maintain devices Practice Question
You need to deploy a line-of-business (LOB) iOS app to company-owned devices using Microsoft Intune. The app is signed with an enterprise certificate. Which deployment method should you use?
⚠ Common exam trap
Candidates often confuse LOB app deployment with VPP apps, mistakenly thinking that any app not from the public store must use VPP, but VPP is only for App Store apps, while LOB apps are for enterprise-signed .ipa files uploaded directly to Intune.
