Hi, Robinson.

On generic Android devices, you can’t restrict the users from physically turning the display off via Power button. You can disable the automatic screen timeout, though.

Here’s how you do that.

  1. Go to Policies and edit your Kiosk policy.
  2. Under Kiosk settings > Peripheral settings
    Check Keep Screen on
  3. Save the Policy

Thanks and regards
