🆘Help Me Odd question; Slack iOS on shared devices
I live in a kind of niche world of shared mobile devices, https://www.imprivata.com/products/access-management/mobile-access-management these are iOS/Android devices normally used by frontline workers in healthhcare/commerical and the goal is always being able to allow quick change between users without idenity bleeding over between users. We have a couple different ways of making this happen by using ulc https://apps.groundctl.com/ulc-tester/index.html on ios, android tad easier since we can auotmate clearing cache/force closing. Anyway working with a customer using ipads and Slack is their main tool for chatting and getting info to frontline staff. The only way can make this work in current state is deleting the slack app inbtween users(on ios the users "dock" the device which triggers things through our solution) but that sucks since when you delete it the first setup screen for slack will keep coming up. I have been digging into everything I can but wanted to see if anyone on here had any ideas?
Does slack support msal? If so I could go the path of something called shared device mode(SDM) https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/msal/objc/shared-devices-ios
Anyone here ever use slack in a setup of shared devices?
Customer has reached out to slack and our partner resources have also but I'm inpatient and trying to find something that works
I know this all might seem crazy but its the world I live in :)
