This page provides an overview of the new enterprise APIs, features, and
behavior changes introduced in Android 13 (API level 33).
New Security Logs
To standardize the audit output on the device to meet the requirements of the
Common Criteria Protection Profile for Mobile Device Fundamentals
(PP_MDF), additional audit events have been added to the SecurityLog that were
previously only available in logcat. The events are focused on Wi-Fi and
Bluetooth connectivity.
Behavior changes
In Android 13 (API level 33) and higher, internet connectivity is required by
default to provision company-owned devices. If a device is expected to be
provisioned offline or in a closed-network environment, EMMs must include the
following flag in the provisioning extras:
DevicePolicyManager.EXTRA_PROVISIONING_ALLOW_OFFLINE = "android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_ALLOW_OFFLINE"
Provisioning without internet connectivity results in a loss of functionality,
so EMMs should only use this flag when devices can't access the internet as part
of deployment requirements.
Deprecations
Android 13 (API level 33) and higher includes the following notable API
deprecation:
android.app.extra.PROVISIONING_LOGO_URI is fully deprecated in Android 13
and higher. Logo customization is no longer supported during the
provisioning flows.
