If your app is opening a webview it is better you add that specific website as a “webapp” in itself, and add it into Kiosk mode’s background apps.

This is a case of your application (store/ in-house) opening a webview. It shall open well if you have an in-built webview like Facebook. If not, you can add that specific URL as a webapp into background apps.

But if you are still facing trouble you can ping them directly, those chaps, real fast..

Hi Neil & Valerie,

Thank you for questions and solutions.

As mentioned by Valerie, it would be best to add the webview as a backgrounded webapp in kiosk mode.

You need to navigate to Apps -> Add Apps -> Webapp. Here, you can enter the website that needs to open in kiosk -> Create the webapp.

Then, you can add this webapp to the background apps of your kiosk policy.

Else, if you need to add a browser to open up webviews, you can do that as well, by installing a browser and adding it to your list of background apps. But please note that when this is done, the user might be able to browse any website.

Cheers!
