- The option to create a custom group is available. A custom group allows you to define inclusive and targeted criteria for app sharing. By adding values under a custom group, you can control access to apps for users who fall under all values. Consider the example where a custom group is created with values "City" -> "Miami" and "State" -> "Florida".
