Hi Team,
Can I have my other apps still running on the phone, while only one app is to be shown on the device?

Hey, Thanks for posting.

You can add these apps as background apps. This is useful when the enterprise requires a particular app to be installed in an Android device but don’t want the user to tamper with it. The icon of the apps that are added as background apps won’t be shown in the kiosk launcher.
To add background apps, please navigate to Kiosk Lockdown–>Android Kiosk Lockdown–> Background Apps. Click ‘Configure’ and add the desired apps. Click ‘Done’ and save the policy after associating targets.

Please use the help link to get more info

Cheers!
