WLWebview Kiosk

Overview

Core functionalities and contact details

Webview Kiosk is a free and open-source Android application for secure, kiosk-style web browsing.

It can function as digital signage, a kid-friendly restricted browser, an immersive web reader, an interactive signup form, a home assistant dashboard, or simply a wall clock.

Designed for small businesses and device owners who are looking for a simple and standalone Kiosk solution.

Key Features

  • Lock Task Mode (Pin): prevent access to your device's home screen, apps and status bar
  • Secure Settings: configurations are protected by biometrics, device credentials or custom password
  • URL Filtering: use regular expression to control web access through blacklisting and whitelisting
  • Export/Import: allows for the backup and restore of user settings and configurations
  • Local files: display an image, audio, video, or HTML file in kiosk mode from your device
  • Managed Configurations: for fully-managed (company-owned) devices, settings can be set and restricted remotely through an MDM/EMM provider

For all configurable settings, view the Settings section.
