Hello Tech Community, Our organization is currently deploying a configuration in Microsoft Intune using a Corporate-owned dedicated device enrollment profile. We’ve applied a device restriction policy to configure Samsung tablets in Multi-app Kiosk mode, with Managed Home Screen set as the launcher. Instead of using an app configuration policy, Managed Home Screen is configured through the device restrictions policy. We’ve left the device navigation options unconfigured, which should hide the following UI elements: Android Overview button Android Home button Android App drawer Once all policies and required apps are installed, Managed Home Screen successfully acts as the launcher for end-users to sign in. Overall, this works well; however, we’ve encountered an intermittent issue: After multiple lock/unlock cycles, the navigation bar sometimes reappears, showing the Overview, Home, and App Drawer buttons. This allows users to access background apps that are not exposed through Managed Home Screen, which defeats the kiosk experience. Device details: Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE Android 16, One UI 8.0 Managed Home Screen version: 2.2.0.107721 Has anyone experienced this behavior or have recommendations to prevent these UI elements from reappearing? I’ll gladly provide additional details about our configuration if needed. Thank you!123Views3likes0CommentsAzureADSharedMode - Teams without PIN
I prepared in Intune profile for Samsung devices in kiosk mode with a multi-app setting. I added Teams, Outlook, Egde and Managed Home Screen as apps. In addition, I also created a configuration profile for the Managed Home Screen application in which I set that it is necessary to configure a PIN for the session. I also set the Require PIN code after returning from screen saver option. Everything works great until the user leaves the Teams app on or someone calls the user logged into Teams. At this point, no PIN is needed to unlock the device. You can easily access Teams of the logged-in user. The user is asked for the session PIN only when he wants to switch to another app. I didn't set screen lock in android settings because in my opinion it's pointless since the device is in shared mode. Have you encountered anything like this? It poses a potential security risk if a logged-in user leaves the Teams app open, puts the phone down and walks away from it, and at that moment someone calls the phone and the person who picks it up without probelm gets access to the logged-in user's teams.364Views1like2CommentsOneDrive won't sign out users on Android multi-user kiosk mode
Hello, We are trying to configure multiple tablets to be used at a multi-user level in kiosk mode. The devices we're working on are running Android 11 and are model SM-T220. We have enrolled these devices with the Corporate-owned dedicated device enrollment profile and have created a specific configuration profile for the tablets' intended use. One issue we are running into is when a user is logged out and another signs in, the old user's OneDrive account continues to stay logged in where it can be accessed when another user signs in. Looking to see how access to other users' OneDrive accounts can be made inaccessible when logged in with another account. Thank you, Jess8.4KViews1like14CommentsEdge problem with full screen mode (a.k.a) --kiosk mode
From Edge Version 79.0.309.68 All the way to Version 81.0.396.0 canary, they have this problem. when I use this switch/command on the target of Edge shortcut: "--kiosk" (without quotes) I do get to launch Edge in full screen mode, but there is no way to interact with the toolbar anymore, neither is there any way to close Edge, other than pressing Windows key to show the taskbar. Edge Canary and Dev have this flag: #edge-enable-shy-ui More info here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/discussions/finally-here-the-real-full-screen-experience-in-edge-insider/m-p/1011888 and you can see how it behaves in fullscreen mode with that flag. but when kiosk mode is used, that behavior doesn't work anymore.16KViews1like2Comments
