Naven

Glossary

Managed device

A phone or laptop an organisation controls, usually a school's or an employer's.

Management software can forbid installing anything, restrict which sites are reachable, and enforce settings the user cannot change. School Chromebooks are the common example, and they are the reason a great many students cannot use the messenger everybody else uses.

A web app sidesteps the install restriction but not the network filter: a blocked domain is blocked whatever it serves.

Where Naven stands

Naven works on a managed device because there is nothing to install. If the network blocks the domain, that is the administrator's decision and Naven offers no way around it.

Try it in the tab you already have open

No install, no phone number, no card, and no new password. Sign in with the Gmail, Outlook or other email address you already have.
