In just about every case, MDM can only be removed by the company/school that required it on your device. Go to Settings > General > VPN & Device Management and post a screenshot of what you have there, or see if it can be deleted. The purpose that those companies install MDM is to restrict what the user can do with the device and they do not let the users bypass the MDM as that would defeat the whole purpose.


  • Did you purchase the device used?
  • Are we missing something about the history of the device?
