Set up Secure Mobile Working (Company Portal app) on android

Before you get started

• Remove any apps using your University login (such as Box, Outlook, or Excel).
• Make sure your device is fully charged (keep it plugged in) and connected to wifi.
• Enable encryption (if it isn't enabled already).
  • This may take an hour or more and the way to do it varies depending on version/device.
  • Open your phone Settings and go to Lock Screen and Security, then encrypt.
  • The exact process differs between phones. If you get stuck: search online for your device name and enable encryption.
