# Classic Remote Management Migration

Classic Remote Management will be **EOL 2026-01-01**

Customers must migrate from Classic to [Unified Kiosk Remote Management](https://help.android-kiosk.com/en/article/unified-kiosk-remote-management-j5osu7/) because classic will be **EOL 2026-01-01** but also to benefit from the enhanced features, easier to use UI and performance improvements.


###### Creating a Unified Remote Management Account
* Login to the new remote management platform by visiting https://klr.android-kiosk.com

###### Profiles/Configurations (migrate these first)
The Unified web console uses slightly different terminology, Profiles are now named Configurations.
When migrating a profile all settings are copied over to a new configuration, the existing profile still remains in the classic web console.
To migrate a profile click Migrate, once migrated you will see a unique registration key (KR-XXXXX-805 for example) against the profile, this key can be used when migrating devices (optional).
***NOTE: File groups are not copied over.***

###### Devices
In order to simplify the migration process we have made it possible to migrate devices without the need to physically visit each device, providing the device is already running v2.8.4+.
To migrate a device:
* Click Migrate (select config)
* Select a configuration from the list (it will automatically default to the correct configuration if you have migrated your profiles)
* Click Start Migration

When the device next polls the backend server it will attempt to register itself to the unified web console. If successful the device will disconnect itself from the classic web console.
