mobileconfig file and safari

Question

I've created a mobileconfig file and deployed it to webstore. To install mobileconfig file on iPhone i need to either send it in a mail or user can type webstore URL on iphone safari to install it. But my question here is: Will it be possible to create a webview interface or something else and install mobileconfig file silently on the phone? I am asking this because i already have an app where i would like to integrate this rather ask user to go to a URL and install the file. Will it be possible?

Answer 1

I'd be concerned if there was no user consent when installing a mobileconfig file - sounds like a very bad idea incase someone where to implant some rogue settings.

Its good that a user can inspect what the mobileconfig file does before they accept it.
