Overview

Since configuring your device will require your IU passphrase, you must perform these steps yourself. Do not provide your passphrase to a sales or service representative. Doing so is a violation of your Acceptable Use Agreement; see Your responsibilities as a computer user at IU.

For help, contact your campus Support Center.

Important:

Windows 10 Mobile is no longer receiving security updates from Microsoft as of December 10, 2019. Microsoft has ended support for Windows Phone and recommends moving to a supported Android or iOS device. For details, see Windows 10 Mobile End of Support: FAQ.

Wireless on campus

Note:

eduroam is replacing IU Secure as the default wireless network for students, faculty, staff, and affiliates on all IU campuses, and you can use it now. UITS will retire IU Secure in the fall of 2020.

Security

Because your device will have access to personal information, you should make an effort to secure it and the data it holds. If your device will be accessing IU institutional data, proper security is necessary. For guidelines and detailed instructions, see Protect data on your mobile device.

Apps to download

UITS recommends that students, faculty, and staff use the following apps with tablets and smartphones:

Box mobile app: Use IU Box on your mobile devices

Important:

Box cloud storage will be retired at Indiana University in spring 2021. Migration of IU's Box data began in June 2020. For details about cloud storage options at IU, see Storage @ IU.

After your files are migrated from Box, the Box versions become read-only. Migrations will be finished by March 2021, and access to Box will be terminated in May 2021.
