Mobile endpoints require the GlobalProtect app to connect to GlobalProtect™. Use the
GlobalProtect app compatibility matrix to
determine what version of the GlobalProtect app you want your users to run on their
endpoints. The version that an end user must download and install for successful network
connectivity depends on your environment.
The app deployment method depends on the type of endpoint as follows:
| Platform | Deployment Options |
|---|
| iOS and Android endpoints |
From a mobile endpoint management system—If you use a
mobile management system, such as an MDM or EMM, you can use
the system to deploy and configure the GlobalProtect app.
See Mobile Device Management Overview.. From an app store—The end user can also download and
install the GlobalProtect app directly from the Apple App
Store (iOS endpoints) or from Google Play (Android
endpoints). For instructions on how to download and test the
GlobalProtect app installation, see Download and Install the GlobalProtect
Mobile App.

| Chromebooks |
The GlobalProtect app for Android is supported only on
certain
Chromebooks. Chromebooks that do not support
Android applications must continue to run the
GlobalProtect app for Chrome, which is not supported
starting with GlobalProtect app 5.0 and later. From Workspace ONE—You can deploy the GlobalProtect
app for Android on managed Chromebooks that are enrolled
with Workspace ONE. After you deploy the app, configure and
deploy a VPN profile to set up the GlobalProtect app for end
users automatically. To deploy the GlobalProtect app for
Android on managed Chromebooks using Workspace ONE, see
