Android Kiosk Web Browser

Industry-Leading Android Kiosk Browser Lockdown

Control Access to Websites and Web Apps. Turn Off-the-Shelf Devices Into Web Kiosks.

What is Android Kiosk Browser?

An Android Kiosk Browser is a special web browser that restricts access to specific websites and web apps on Android devices. When installed, it turns the device into an Android Web Kiosk, allowing users to access only approved content.

Businesses use Android browser kiosk mode to ensure employees or customers can browse securely without distractions or security risks. Admins can allow access to one or multiple websites while blocking all others. This prevents users from visiting off-topic websites or downloading harmful content.
