How to Start Your Web Browser in Kiosk Mode with KioskSimple

By starting your web browser in “kiosk mode” it effectively converts the web browser into a self-service kiosk application. The goal of running your web browser in kiosk mode is to “cripple” the web browser so that all of the typical web browser navigation functions are stripped away, giving you complete control over the users experience.

The problem is this still leaves the Windows operating system vulnerable to user tampering since it’s trivial to exit most web browsers by pressing Alt-F4 (and several other methods) and thereby dropping to the Windows desktop. This is why we created KioskSimple, to not only run your web browser in kiosk mode, but actually secure the Windows operating system. In many cases you’ll also want to control the web content users will be permitted to access and limit it to that of your organization which is also made possible by KioskSimple.

Showing Advertisements While Your Kiosk Is Idle With KioskSimple

A great time to display advertisements on your kiosk is while the kiosk is idle to catch the attention of passerby’s. The kiosk’s advertisements can even double as a screen saver to help prevent damage to the screen which can occur from showing the same image for too long. KioskSimple makes it easy to run advertisements on your kiosk by allowing you to define a series of web pages that run in a loop while the kiosk is idle (aka an attract loop). This makes it simple to display html based advertisements with pictures, audio and video from your kiosk. Continue reading “Showing Advertisements While Your Kiosk Is Idle With KioskSimple”

Blocking Websites on Your Kiosk with KioskSimple

If you’re using a kiosk to display a website(s) then chances are you don’t want your users to be able to browse wherever they please. You want to keep your website on the kiosk at all times so that you control exactly what your customers see while using your kiosk. We’ve made this easy with KioskSimple and no coding or nerd degree is required.

KioskSimple uses a hybrid whitelist (websites that are allowed) and blacklist (websites that are blocked) for maximum security and flexibility. In order for a website to be displayed on your kiosk it must be both included in the whitelist and not include in the blacklist. I’ll do an example below so you can see just how easy this is.
