Today, we shipped the first of many features to help people get even more out of SharePoint by finding and downloading the SharePoint mobile apps! Your SharePoint Home experience will now feature a “Get the mobile app” button at the bottom of the page. Selecting the button will open a new tab with information about the apps across iOS, Android, and the Windows 10 platforms. Coming soon, users will also be able to email or use sms to send themselves an app invite. The SharePoint mobile apps work with SharePoint Online in Office 365, SharePoint Server (2013 and 2016) on-premises and your hybrid environment. This feature is currently shipped to First Release and will be expanded to the rest of Production in the next few weeks. We’re eager to hear your feedback and use it to continuously provide the best SharePoint Home experience. Send us inputs via comments in this thread, posts and votes to SharePoint UserVoice, or through the feedback option on SharePoint Home itself.

How will this integrate with Intune MAM policies?Will these actions show up in the security center audit logs?

Also can you fix the mobile apps so they can see document libraries for sites created from a template can actually be found. I.e. item objects with id's starting 8000. As the mobile apps are pretty useless to us as user cannot see their content.This also goes for the web copy to functionality. None of our site libraries except default out of the box ones can be found.Third party apps appear to have no problem with finding these. So it must be possible.Thanks

Thanks for the feedback Philip. I'm adding Nate Clinton and LincolnDeMaris who own the mobile apps and document libraries. They'll be able to share more details on your ask.

Thanks Quincy. We are taking a look at the SharePoint pieces right now. For the OneDrive piece, adding Ahmed Gharib. Thanks! Nate

Hi Quincy, Are you referring to OneDrive for Business on the Web? -Ahmed

On the subject of the SharePoint apps, the new app-to-app integration with Yammer is great. Can we expect something similar for Teams?

  Definitely thinking going on around that space. Not sure on the timing or the specific features... but stay tuned :-)

Hi, we have multiple customers with On-Premise installation of SharePoint 2013 and SharePoint 2016 with ADFS.

We are not able to use the SharePoint mobile apps to connect to these installations. Is it right that you do not support SharePoint installations with ADFS and the SharePoint mobile app or the OneDrive App ?

  Hi Dominik... that's correct, we currently don't support ADFS for on-prem 2013/2016
  
  Thanks

    Microsoft recommends using ADFS for SharePoint 2013 and SharePoint 2016 and the mobile Apps will not work.
    
    Is it on your schedule to support ADFS with your mobile Apps in the future ?

I am not finding "Get my mob apps" options.

Could you please post some screen shot of it?

Thanks,

  The blue button at the bottom-right of SharePoint Home in the screenshot above is the intended experience Gopi. We have only shipped it to First Release tenants as of now and will be expanding in the next few days.

  Hi Dean. Right now the feature isn't integrated with MAM policies. For the audit logs, those actions aren't included. Are there specific things you'd like to see in the logs? Vidya Srinivasan

    Data such as App installation, app activity, update/version information, and device type could be valuable.
