Abstract: Various examples for application management detection are described. In one example, depending upon whether an installation token includes a unique token value, a client device can determine whether an application is managed or unmanaged. Additionally, the client device can determine whether the application is managed or unmanaged based on whether a keychain installation token includes a unique token value, a value of a keychain installation token, and a value of a launched flag for the application. Using the concepts described herein, an unmanaged application can proceed to execute with limited functionality, present a notification that it should be reinstalled by the management service, stop executing, or take other measures.
