# DDM Configuration - Restricting Math Results in Other Apps with FileWave
## Restricting Math Results in Other Apps with FileWave
With iOS 18 and macOS 15, Apple introduced new controls for managing **Math Notes** and related behaviors across apps. FileWave allows you to configure these restrictions through the **Apple DDM Configuration Editor**.
## Steps to Configure
1. In FileWave Admin, go to:
**New Fileset → Apple → DDM Configuration:**

3. Leave the sub-options **unchecked**:
- *Keyboard suggestions include math solutions*
- *Math Notes is allowed in other apps such as Notes*
⚠️ Note: Checking *Math Notes is allowed* will **enable** sharing of math results across apps (e.g., in Freeform). Leaving it unchecked will restrict this.
4. Save and deploy the configuration to a test device, then a test group, followed by all target devices.
## Result
Once applied, Math Notes and related results will no longer be offered in other apps such as Freeform or Notes. Even though the device’s **Settings > Freeform > Math Results** menu may still display “Suggest Results,” no actual math solutions will appear.
This ensures students or end users can use core functionality of apps without unintended math assistance.
