Google Play services for AR (ARCore) is not available as a Managed Play Store app
Hi Moombas -- we thought the same, but it seems the device and OS does not have it pre-installed nor auto-installs. The device is also on Google ARCore's supported device list.
The customer noted ability to find "Google Play Services for AR" and install it if the device is unmanaged. They also attempted to download and host the component on their own (instead of via Play Store).
Thanks,
Dan
It looks as if the AR Core is generally excluded from the search results. Presumably because the installation is performed automatically in the background on compatible devices.
Is the customer really sure that the app is not installed in the background? The AR Core is more of a headless app and does not have an app icon in the launcher.
In my case, the AR Core is installed in all areas of BYOD devices / COPE devices. (Personal Space, Private Space, Work Profile) I don't have a fully managed device to hand at the moment.
