📢 Official Microsoft Message Center Announcement
(Updated) Plan for Change: New device page experience will become the default view
Message ID: MC1456780 (Updated)
Updated October 23, 2026: The content has been updated to provide additional clarity on admin permissions for the new device experience.
Earlier this year, we released the new single device experience that provides a single, consolidated view for device management, making it easier to access device information, monitor activity, use management tools, and perform device actions The new single device page is turned on by default. You can use the “Preview new device toggle” to turn it off and return to the original device page.
Starting with Intune’s September (2609) release, the new device page will become the default experience for all administrators, and the previous device page experience will no longer be available.
[How this will affect your organization:]
Admins who navigate to Devices > All devices and select a device will automatically see the new device page experience. The legacy device page will no longer be available after this change.
All existing device management capabilities remain available. This update focuses on improving discoverability, usability, and navigation without removing existing management functionality.
With the new device experience, administrators must have the Managed devices/Update permission in addition to any permissions required for the specific device action they want to perform. For example, to change or remove a device’s primary user, an administrator must have both Managed devices/Update and Managed devices/Set primary user. Administrators who do not have Managed devices/Update may also be unable to perform actions such as renaming a device.
[What you need to do to prepare:]
Update your documentation and review your admin permissions for device management actions as needed. We recommend becoming familiar with the updated interface before it becomes the default view.
To preview the new experience today:
- In the Microsoft Intune admin center, navigate to Devices > All devices.
- Select a device to view device-specific information, such as device properties, device activity, tools, and reports.
