Kiosk Mode - Windows and Android Features Explained

• For Windows systems, the Kiosk Mode will hide the start menu and notification, and the wallpaper will turn black. It will reboot the system automatically when users turn on/off the Kiosk Mode. 

• For Android systems, the Kiosk Mode will hide the navigation bar and notification bar. 

• This mode provides Kiosk devices a convenient method to set up. The option “Default startup APP” is used to set a retail application as a default running APP. The APP will keep operating no matter how many times the system restarts.
