Thus the correct option is b. When the user manually installs it from the Jamf Self-Service app.

When an app's distribution method is set to 'Make Available in Self Service', it indicates that the app will not be immediately installed on mobile devices. In this configuration, the installation of the app is reliant on the user's actions. The app will be installed only when the user manually installs it from the Jamf Self-Service app.

It will not install automatically or when the user logs into the device with their Managed Apple ID. Nor will it install when the user attempts to download it from the App Store. The app is exclusively available for installation within the Jamf Self-Service platform.

Hence, the correct choice is "When the user manually installs it from the Jamf Self-Service app". This demonstrates the user's active role in determining the installation of the app, providing them with autonomy over their device's content.

This setting allows for a more personalized approach to app installation, empowering users to select the apps they find beneficial or interesting. By giving users the ability to install apps on their own terms, organizations can foster a sense of ownership and responsibility among their users.
