Android smartphones and tablets provide portable, convenient and powerful platform for businesses.\u00a0Android 4.0 onwards, Google introduced a bottom bar in Android UI with few buttons on it. This bar helps users multitask and navigate through device application and settings. Different device manufacturers like Samsung, Asus have extended this bottom bar with even more options like Mini Apps Tray.<\/p>\n

\"Android<\/p>\n

While the bottom bar is a great tool for consumers giving them quick navigation pathways through their Android device, it doesn\u2019t fit very\u00a0well with lots of enterprise use cases. For scenarios like public kiosk, digital signage, where the device is intended to be used for a dedicated purpose, running a particular application all the time, bottom bar gives access to prohibited sections of Android settings. This can lead to non-functional deployment and device misuse.<\/p>\n

The easiest way to prevent this is to completely hide the Bottom Bar on the device. SureLock Kiosk Lockdown can completely hide Android bottom bar on Samsung devices, devices with root permissions and devices with signature permissions.For list of such manufacturers and our technology partners, please refer\u00a0this<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here are the steps to hide your Android device\u2019s Bottom Bar:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Download and install SureLock<\/strong> from\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. Launch\u00a0SureLock.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. Tap SureLock Home Screen<\/strong> 5 times within 3 seconds to launch the password prompt.<\/li>\n
  4. On the password prompt, enter SureLock<\/strong> default password as\u00a00000<\/strong>(four zeros) to launch Admin Settings <\/strong>screen.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    5. On Admin<\/strong> Settings<\/strong> screen, tap SureLock<\/strong> Settings <\/strong>> Hide<\/strong> Bottom<\/strong> bar.<\/strong><\/p>\n
