You cannot install the Horizon Client application before the effective date on the Deployment tab.
AirWatch delivers Horizon Client to the mobile devices in the user group that you associated with the
Horizon Client application.
When a user launches Horizon Client, Horizon Client communicates with the AirWatch MDM Agent on the
device. If you configured a default list of View Connection Server instances, AirWatch pushes the server
information to the AirWatch MDM Agent on the device and shortcuts for those servers appear in
Horizon Client.
What to do next
You can use the AirWatch console to edit the Horizon Client application and push those changes to mobile
devices. For example, you can add a default View Connection Server instance to the server list for the
Horizon Client application.
Horizon Client Data Collected by VMware
If your company participates in the customer experience improvement program, VMware collects data from
certain Horizon Client fields. Fields containing sensitive information are made anonymous.
VMware collects data on the clients to prioritize hardware and software compatibility. If your company's
administrator has opted to participate in the customer experience improvement program, VMware collects
anonymous data about your deployment in order to improve VMware's response to customer requirements.
No data that identifies your organization is collected. Horizon Client information is sent first to View
Connection Server and then on to VMware, along with data from View servers, desktop pools, and remote
desktops.
