- Device management
- Device configuration and updates
- Messaging and system controls
- Keyboard layouts and UI behaviour

The Device Settings permissions provide granular control over:
- POS Device lifecycle (add/remove/update)
- Device and communication management
- User interface behaviour (keyboards/layouts)
- Operational features across venues
Proper configuration ensures:
- Secure device access
- Controlled updates and changes
- Consistent user experience across all devices
