Hi,

Ah, maybe I wasn't clear about the API; it doesn't affect the way the 
Apps work on the profile side, it uses a different Android API to 
install the WiFi networks. This was non-existant in Android 10, it 
caused a crash in the first release of Android 11, but it works well on 
A11+ now, but we have some remaining issues that we're still working on.

So it will continue to use .eap-config files, which is an answer to your 
second question also: all current Apps read .eap-config files, also iOS, 
and not .mobileconfig. (In fact I think that wouldn't even be possible.) 
We may have a different strategy on a macOS version, but that's for later.

Hope this clarifies things,

Regards,
Paul
