macOS Foundation - Devicie App

Overview

The Devicie app is a background utility that Devicie uses to collect device compliance and telemetry datapoints, to help organisations understand the health and security compliance of their managed devices. 
The collection and delivery process is designed to occur silently to the end user, with minimal impact to the Mac’s CPU or networking performance.

User Experience

    As is the case for all applications that run as background processes or login items, users will see a notification prompt informing them that their organisation has deployed a managed applicationUnknownThe Devicie app will run silently in the background, approximately every 12 hours.

    Pre-requisites 

    macOS 15+

    Troubleshooting Notes

    Where is Devicie.app installed on Macs?
    Devicie.app is installed in /usr/local/Devicie

    How often does it collect telemetry information?
    Approximately every 12 hours. This scheduled run is managed by the Mac’s launchd service, which is responsible for ensuring the Devicie.app carries out its tasks without impacting system performance.

    How do I view Devicie.app logs?
    You must be a local admin to view Devicie’s logs.
    In Terminal, run
    log show --predicate 'subsystem contains "com.devicie"'
    Use the --info flag for more verbose results.
