AppIdentifierMatches
A list of managed app identifiers, as strings, that must follow the associated rules. If this key is missing, the rules apply to all managed apps on the device. Each string in the `AppIdentifierMatches` array may either be an exact app identifier match (for example, `com.mycompany.myapp`) or it may specify a prefix match for the bundle ID by using the \* wildcard character. If used, this character must appear after a period (.) and may only appear once, at the end of the string; for example, `com.mycompany.\*`.

The Wi-Fi Assist policy to apply to the SIM cards specified in the ICCIDs. Allowed values: - `2`: Use the default system policy for the specified SIM card(s). - `3`: Make Wi-Fi Assist switch more aggressively from a poor Wi-Fi connection to cellular data for the specified SIM card(s).
