    Sign in using your administrator account (does not end in @gmail.com).

  2. Go to Menu ""and then"" Devicesand thenOverview.

In the mobile devices list, you can do the following:

What you see in the list

Mobile devices
  • User’s personal devices that sync your organization’s data.
  • Company-owned devices that are assigned to users. (To see devices that are not assigned to users, at the bottom of the screen, click View unassigned devices.)
  • Devices that tried to access a user account from your organization but were blocked, either by an admin or automatically, because the device doesn’t adhere to your organization’s policies.
  • Some unmanaged devices that you allow to sync work data. For example, devices that use Google Sync and you previously managed.

Some devices might be listed more than once. For example, if a phone is shared between 2 users, it’s listed twice—once for each user account.
