A portal application can receive a listing of available applications in response to a request sent to a management server. The listing can include a plurality of attributes for each available application, such as the requirements for using the features of each application or a dependency upon another application. Based on the plurality of attributes received, the portal application can determine that a first application requires installation of a second application in order for the first application to provide additional functionality. The portal application can display icons corresponding to the available applications and display one or more UI elements, indicating that the first application requires installation of the second application. The portal application can also push the second application to the device and assist in installing and initializing the second application on the device.

Identifying and displaying application dependencies

Examples herein describe systems and methods for on-device, application-specific compliance enforcement. An example method can include receiving, at a user device, an application having a compliance engine. The user device can also store a compliance rule that applies to the received application. The compliance rule can specify a condition and a remedial action for the application. The user device can execute the application. The application can determine, using the compliance engine within the application, whether the condition is present. The determination can be made regardless of whether the device has internet or cellular connectivity. Based on determining that the condition is present, the application can perform the remedial action.
