MDM kiosk mode locks Android tablets and iPads to the POS application for checkout, payment processing, and inventory lookup. Self-checkout stations use a single-app kiosk with content filtering to block everything except the payment server URL. Factory reset protection prevents staff or customers from resetting the device.
MDM kiosk mode locks devices to a lockdown browser for standardized testing, students cannot switch apps, access notes, or take screenshots. Schedule-based kiosk mode activates during testing hours and deactivates for general classroom use. Content filtering runs continuously blocking inappropriate content during testing and instruction.
MDM kiosk mode locks tablets to patient check-in, collect insurance information, verify identity, and capture signatures in healthcare. Check-in kiosks require HIPAA-compliant encryption with kiosk lockdown because the collected data qualifies as ePHI. Wayfinding kiosks displaying maps without collecting patient data need single-app lockdown with content filtering.
MDM kiosk mode uses multi-app configuration to give technicians access to a curated set of tools: a diagnostic app, a camera, a barcode scanner, and a reporting app. Bento MDM’s Offline QR Commands let IT push policy updates to field kiosks without a network connection, extending kiosk management to locations where no other MDM solution can operate.
MDM kiosk mode locks tablets in hotel self-check-in, airline check-in at airports, restaurant ordering, and car rental kiosks. Single-app kiosk presents only the guest interaction interface: credit card capture, ID scanning, room selection, order placement, without exposing the operating system underneath. Custom branding maintains property or brand identity across every guest touchpoint.
MDM kiosk mode locks devices to a signage player application that runs content on a continuous loop, menu boards in restaurants, departure screens in airports, promotional displays in retail. No user interaction occurs. Remote view lets IT verify what the screen displays without visiting the physical location.

What is kiosk mode in MDM?
MDM kiosk mode is a mobile device management capability that locks a device to a single application or a curated set of approved applications. The home screen, settings menu, and navigation controls are disabled. The user interacts only with the approved app. When the app closes or crashes, the device automatically restarts it. MDM kiosk mode applies to Android (COSU dedicated device mode), iOS (Single App Mode), and Windows (Assigned Access).
What is the difference between single-app and multi-app kiosk mode?
Single-app kiosk mode locks the device to one application — a POS terminal running only the payment app, a check-in tablet running only the registration app. Multi-app kiosk mode locks the device to a curated set of applications selected by IT — a field service device with a diagnostic app, a camera, a barcode scanner, and a reporting tool. Single-app is for public-facing and single-function devices. Multi-app is for worker devices that need multiple tools but no personal access.
How do I update apps on a device that is in kiosk mode?
MDM pushes OS and app updates to kiosk devices over the air, the same way it updates any enrolled device. Configure automated patching with a maintenance window during off-hours so the device can restart for updates without interrupting its kiosk function. The kiosk app relaunches automatically after the update completes. If the device operates without connectivity, Bento MDM’s Offline QR Commands can push the update via a locally scanned QR code.
How do I exit kiosk mode remotely?
IT administrators can exit kiosk mode remotely from the Bento MDM admin console by removing or modifying the kiosk policy assigned to the device or device group. The device exits kiosk mode and returns to the standard managed home screen. On-device, authorized users can exit kiosk mode using a PIN or QR code configured by IT. Bento MDM also supports remote view and control, allowing IT to interact with the kiosk screen directly for troubleshooting.
Can I set up kiosk mode without MDM?
Limited kiosk functionality is possible without MDM. On iOS, Guided Access locks the device to one app temporarily — but it is user-initiated, requires a passcode to exit, and does not survive restarts. On Android, Screen Pinning locks the current app but can be exited by the user. On Windows, Assigned Access can be configured locally. None of these approaches offer persistent, centrally managed kiosk lockdown. For production kiosk deployments — where devices must stay locked, auto-restart on crash, receive remote updates, and prevent factory resets — MDM is required.
What MDM solution can help manage kiosk devices?
An MDM solution for kiosk devices should support single-app and multi-app kiosk mode across Android, iOS, and Windows from one console. It should include factory reset protection (to prevent unauthorized resets), content filtering (to block network access outside the kiosk app), automated patching (to keep unattended devices current), and remote view (to troubleshoot without site visits). Bento MDM includes all of these capabilities at $1/device with no enterprise tier gating.
Does Bento MDM support kiosk mode for macOS?
Yes. Bento MDM supports macOS single-app mode for Mac devices, allowing IT to lock a Mac into one application using MDM profiles. This is useful for digital signage, self-service terminals, and dedicated-purpose Mac workstations. macOS kiosk mode requires the device to be enrolled and supervised via Apple Automated Device Enrollment.
