Android device password not applying in Kiosk mode
Hi everyone, I'm not sure if I'm missing something here and please correct me if what I'm doing is not possible or by design. I'm setting up an Android tablet for single application use in Kio...
This is by design in Android Enterprise - Dedicated Devices (Kiosk) mode. You can configure the PIN/password via compliance or configuration policy but it doesn't get enforced as there is no Company Portal on the device in this scenario. The solution is to include in your documentation and processes that the owner/technician sets up a PIN after device is setup.
If you use a 3rd party app to set a PIN, the policies to indeed get enforced - you just need to get the initial PIN there.
We wrote our own little app to do this function and is pushed down to the clients as part of the profile.
- @BrettJames with you app can you set the passcode via an application config? Also is it possible to change the pin like the native reset passcode command but specify it to what you want? You mentioned some third party apps any that you can recommend? Cheers
Brett James , so there's no way of setting a pin requirement via Intune natively?
