Hey Ruben,
Thank you for reaching out to us. We’re always happy to help.

Yes Ruben, of course you can! All you have to do is select the web app under “Webapp Kiosk” and choose  “Hexnode Browser Lite” as the browser with the “Single web app kiosk” as the default setting. Thus, the Hexnode browser provides access to only a single tab; the address bar is disabled by default.
But please be sure to follow these 2 steps before doing the same: –
1. Open Hexnode MDM application on your iPad at least once post enrolling and grant the app the necessary permissions to have notification access (or) please enable notification access for the Hexnode application on your iPad’s settings.
2. Whitelist all necessary/ additional URLs which you seem necessary in case, the specified Webapp needs to redirect elsewhere briefly, before coming back.

Kindly check the following help document for more information on the same.

PS: – Your iPad should be supervised.

Cheers!
