Add a mobile device
To manage mobile devices, you need to invite the user to add their device, which the user then approves. Mobile devices cannot be added manually to N-able N-central or discovered by agents or probes. Inviting a mobile device to be added to N-able N-central enables you to manage a customer's smartphones or tablets.
