Expo-kiosk NPM

expo-kiosk

Module that ensure android apps run in kiosk mode and has functions to exit out of kiosk mode

API documentation

The module only works for android. It is recommended to not exit apps on iOS and will be considered as a crash. If you would like to run your app in kiosk mode for iOS, refer to Guided Access . The module by default makes sure the app runs in fullscreen.

There are 2 functions that can be called from the repo:-

exitApp() - This function does not kill the app. It allows the user to select the Home app.

killApp() - This function kills the app. Make sure there is no logic below this function as the app is getting killed

The above functions can be used in combination.

Help

Running in fullscreen does not work for all android versions. I tried to make it work but couldn't. If you have found a way, kindly submit a PR.

Installation in managed Expo projects

For managed Expo projects, please follow the installation instructions in the API documentation for the latest stable release. If you follow the link and there is no documentation available then this library is not yet usable within managed projects — it is likely to be included in an upcoming Expo SDK release.
