# Apple MDM (Mobile Device Management) Check

**Check Description**: The MDM (Mobile Device Management) check will return the management status for any Apple Device, including MacBooks. IMEIs and Serial Numbers are supported. This check returns the MDM status displaying either “ON” or “OFF”. Devices with a status of “ON” must be unlocked in order to be reactivated.

**Why It Matters**: Understanding whether a device is MDM-locked is essential when assessing if it’s tied to an organization’s IT infrastructure. This check reveals whether Apple Device Enrollment (ADE) is active, which can restrict a device's usability or resale value.

**When to Use**: By confirming the MDM status (ON/OFF), businesses can avoid purchasing devices that require additional resources and processing to unlock.

**What if my dianogtic software or GSX say MDM 'OFF', but PrologMobile says MDM 'ON'?** There may be discrepancies between what Apple GSX Repair database says, and what PrologMobile says about MDM. While DEP and ABM are designed to facilitate automatic MDM enrollment, there are scenarios where a device may show "MDM OFF" in GSX despite being enrolled in these programs. In this case, PrologMobile *does* say MDM ON. This discrepancy can occur due to pending enrollment, manual removal, errors, or limitations in data synchronization.
