Device Preferences in iOS

There are many preferences that affect the mobile application. These device preferences fall into four categories:

Device preferences can be set by modifying the Preferences.xml file on the client or by programmatically changing them with DevicePreferences.h. The descriptions for the settings in the four sections listed above are described in terms of changes to the XML file.

The top level node in Preferences.xml is the <dp node, which has two child nodes—<cnf for the configuration and <cld for the cloud configuration. The <cnf node contains the top level nodes for general settings (<gnl), connectivity settings (<cty), home screen settings (<hsc) and configuration link properties (<lnk), as well as a number of element attributes, as shown in the table below. Additional table in the other topics in this section provide detailed information about the child elements and attributes in these four top-level configuration nodes.
