Wondering how to disable that annoying system bottom bar present in Honeycomb<\/strong> (Android 3.0.x), IceCream<\/strong> Sandwich<\/strong> (4.0.x), Jellybean<\/strong> (4.1.x, 4.2.x), KitKat<\/strong> (4.4.x) and Lollipop<\/strong> (5.0.x) devices! Well, SureLock<\/a>, SureFox<\/a> and SureVideo <\/a>come with option to disable the bottom bar in tablets running Android 3.0 or higher.<\/p>\n

Disabling bottom bar can be quite helpful in scenarios where complete kiosk lockdown is required and end-users are to be restricted to use of only few allowed functions on the Android phones and tablets.<\/p>\n

Once Disable Bottom Bar<\/strong> option in SureLock<\/strong>, SureFox<\/strong> and SureVideo<\/strong> is enabled, it disables all the functionalities present in bottom bar except Back<\/strong> and Home<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n
