iMazing Profile Editor 2 is now available, introducing Total App Setup
We’re excited to announce the general release of iMazing Profile Editor 2 for macOS, a major update to our free app for creating, editing, and signing configuration profiles for Apple platforms.
At the heart of this release is Total App Setup, a powerful new feature designed to streamline a notably tedious task in Apple IT: configuring macOS app permissions.
Traditionally, configuring payloads such as Privacy Preferences Policy Control (PPPC) meant digging through documentation, running command-line tools, and relying on trial and error.
Total App Setup changes that completely. It analyzes a selected app bundle and generates the necessary settings in a configuration profile that works with any MDM — reducing the process to just seconds.
But it doesn’t stop at PPPC. Total App Setup also auto-configures Notifications, Login Items, and Associated Domains payloads based on the app’s requirements. When available, it even suggests app domain settings payloads to help kickstart user-settings configuration.
Alongside Total App Setup, iMazing Profile Editor 2 also brings a number of additional handy new features:
- Support for visionOS configuration profiles
- The ability to import payloads from plist files or other profiles
- A new option to export payloads to scripts for integration into custom workflows
- Support for MCX-style payloads, a feature frequently requested by organizations using Jamf
For macOS Today - Windows Coming Soon
iMazing Profile Editor 2 is available now for macOS. While Total App Setup is exclusive to macOS, Windows users can look forward to version 2 enhancements too as we’re already working on bringing them to the platform.
A Free App - No Limitations or Registration
iMazing Profile Editor 2 remains completely free with no registration required. It’s trusted by Apple admins around the world and is now more powerful than ever. Download it today to discover the all-new Total App Setup, and to upgrade your Apple device configuration workflows.
