This disclosure relates to a method for managing installation of applications, where the method includes receiving, from a first computing device associated with an administrator of an organization, a pin request to attach an application, provided by an application store platform, with a version of the application, initiating, in response to the pin request, transfer of a copy of the version of the application from the application store platform to a data storage device, generating an application identifier that identifies a location of the version of the application stored in the data storage device, and transmitting installation data to a second computing device that is managed by the organization. The installation data includes the application identifier, which is used by the second computing device to install the version of the application from the data storage device.

Managing installation and updates of an application on a computing device

A method for installation of user device configured web applications includes receiving a request to install a web application, determining if the request is from a user device or a sync server, determining information about the web application based on at least one of a configuration, a platform and a setting associated with the user device, revising the determined information about the web application if the request is from the sync server, determining a logical location of stored files based on the web application and at least one of the configuration, the platform and the setting associated with the user device, and installing the web application using files stored in the determined logical location.
