Does this mean that AllowDeleteBrowsingHistory configured to false? The policy is not supported on Android, only on desktops and Chrome OS: https://www.chromium.org/administrators/policy-list-3#AllowDeletingBrowserHistory
Yeah, and even if we enable the policy on Android, there may also be a bit more work involved to ensure that UI elements are properly disabled. Probably not a massive amount of work, but not just a question of changing the policy template.
Correct, that is not a feature, so it can bypass admin restrictions
