Check Contents

Review configuration settings to confirm "Allow sending diagnostic and usage data to Apple" is disabled.

This check procedure is performed on both the visionOS management tool and the visionOS device.

Note: If an organization has multiple configuration profiles, the check procedure must be performed on the relevant configuration profiles applicable to the scope of the review.

In the visionOS management tool, verify "Allow sending diagnostic and usage data to Apple" is unchecked.

Alternatively, verify the text "<key>allowDiagnosticSubmission</key><false/>" appears in the configuration profile (.mobileconfig file).

On the Apple visionOS device:
1. Open the Settings app.
2. Tap "General".
3. Tap "VPN & Device Management".
4. Tap the configuration profile from the visionOS management tool containing the management policy.
5. Tap "Restrictions".
6. Verify "Diagnostic submission not allowed".

Note: This setting also disables "Share With App Developers".

If "Allow sending diagnostic and usage data to Apple" is checked in the visionOS management tool, "<key>allowDiagnosticSubmission</key><true/>" appears in the configuration profile, or the restrictions policy on the Apple visionOS device from the Apple visionOS management tool does not list "Diagnostic submission not allowed", this is a finding.
