The new requirements apply to any new app or app update that you submit starting Spring 2024. if your app links against any of the listed SDK, then be sure to request an updated version of the SDK that includes the privacy manifest file. What about the listed SDKs that no longer provide active support like AFnetworking ? Do these need to be either removed from the application code and use an alternative. What about the ones that do not have an easy upgrade options like OpenSSL(for which no alternative exist) then application cannot be uploaded?

Hi @pietroCa Were you able to achieve your requirements with Widget. I am starting to explore this option for the very same requirement of launching the app when the phone boots. I have explored the possiblilities of single app mode for supervised devices. We are trying to launch the app in a singleApp mode for a small interval until a certain functionality is achieved in the app ( APNS is received) and then remove the SingleAppMode. However with this approach we are seeing possibilites of user experience interruption. Hence I am considering the widgets option. Do you have any insights into using the widgets for launching the app at phone boot? Any success there?
