Instantly Unlock Devices and Track Lock Status in Real Time

Introducing Lock Status & One-Click Unlock: Better Visibility and Control for Your Device Fleet

Managing hundreds or thousands of mobile devices across campuses or field locations requires more than just location tracking— it demands real-time visibility and immediate control. That’s why we’re excited to announce a major enhancement to Senturo’s locking mechanism: Lock Status Visibility and One-Click Unlock.

This update brings critical improvements to the way IT teams monitor and manage locked devices, especially in large-scale deployments like K-12 school districts, healthcare networks, and field service teams.

Feature Overview: Real-Time Lock Status & Instant Unlock

Until now, devices locked via Senturo required a passcode set by an administrator to be physically entered to unlock the device. Additionally, IT teams had no direct view into which devices were currently locked or unlocked from the dashboard without manual tagging.

With this update, you can now:

• View the real-time lock status of any device that is Senturo locked directly from the device table UI
• Unlock devices remotely with a single click—no password required
• Delegate unlock capabilities to trusted team members without giving full admin access

These enhancements ensure you always know the current state of your devices and can act quickly— whether a student returns a lost Chromebook or a field technician needs their device restored.

Benefits at a Glance

• Improved Operational Visibility: Know the exact status of every device at a glance
• Faster Recovery: Unlock recovered devices en masse without the hassle of retrieving and inputting passcodes
• Enhanced Delegation: Empower frontline tech teams with access to unlock tools, while maintaining admin control
• Streamlined Workflows: Reduce help desk dependencies and restore device access in seconds

A Smarter Locking Experience

This new capability reflects Senturo’s commitment to giving IT teams greater control and clarity in managing their devices. By streamlining the unlock process and providing real-time lock status visibility, it helps reduce administrative overhead and speeds up device recovery. Whether in education, healthcare, or other regulated environments, this update ensures your devices stay secure, accessible, and easy to manage—no matter where they are.
