Overview

Kiosk Mode allows the ‘viva.com | Terminal’ application to be ‘pinned’, filling the device’s screen and locking the ‘More’ (settings) section.

This functionality is especially useful for kiosks and similar customer-facing situations in which only the ‘viva.com | Terminal’ application itself should be available.

Supported integrations
