Kiosk Customizations

When you enable Kiosk Mode on a device profile in CubiLock, you can finely control how the device behaves in a locked‑down environment. The Kiosk Settings tab on the Edit Device Profile page lets you customize several kiosk behavior options, including how navigation works, what users can see, what actions are allowed, and how the screen behaves.

Setting	Description	Example / Behavior
Apps per row	Defines how many app icons are displayed per row on the kiosk launcher screen.	Enter a number (e.g., 3) to control layout density on the home grid.
Kiosk Wallpaper	Upload a custom wallpaper that will be used as the home screen background in kiosk mode.	You can directly upload an image to set as wallpaper
Power Button Actions	Defines what happens if a user long‑presses the Power button while in kiosk mode.	Can control whether Power triggers shutdown, options menu, or is disabled entirely.
System Error Warnings	Controls whether system dialogs (e.g., crash/recovery dialogs) are shown in kiosk mode.	When blocked, the system force‑stops the app instead of showing an error dialog, maintaining a consistent kiosk experience
System Navigation	Specifies which navigation features are enabled (e.g., Home, Overview buttons) in kiosk mode.	You can hide navigation buttons to prevent users from escaping the kiosk interface.
Status Bar	Determines whether system info and notifications are displayed in kiosk mode.	You can disable the status bar to prevent access to quick settings and notifications
Device Settings	Controls whether the Settings app is allowed in kiosk mode.	Allowing settings gives users access; disallowing keeps the environment fully locked down.
Maximum Time to Lock	The timeout (in milliseconds) before the device automatically locks. If unspecified, no timeout restriction is applied.	A value of 0 typically means no restriction.
Auto Rotate Screen	Enables or disables the device’s auto‑rotate behavior in kiosk mode.	Turn on to allow the screen to rotate with device orientation; disable to lock orientation.
Screen Orientation	Pre‑sets the screen orientation (e.g., Portrait or Landscape).	Choose the orientation users will see; useful when a kiosk app requires a specific orientation
Auto Brightness	Controls whether auto‑brightness is enabled when the device is in kiosk mode.	Use this to conserve battery or keep consistent brightness.
Adjust Brightness Level	Slider to define a fixed brightness level when auto‑brightness is off.	Set a comfortable level depending on your environment.
Adjust Player Volume	Slider that determines the device volume level while in kiosk mode.	Useful for public or retail devices to avoid audio that is too loud or muted entirely.
