Primary and Kiosk Apps

Primary Apps

A Primary App is an app that automatically starts when TouchOne is started and can also be configured to automatically re-open after a configurable amount of time. An app that is configured to be the primary app is identified by the “Primary App” icon in the App Library list.

...

A Kiosk App locks down TouchOne to only be able to use that app. When TouchOne is started, the Kiosk App is automatically launched and the user cannot exit the Kiosk App without entering a PIN code. The home button is hidden in this mode.
