In their own words
FreeKiosk
FreeKiosk turns Android tablets into fullscreen kiosks for websites, web apps and external Android apps. In Device Owner mode, it can hide system controls and prevent users from leaving the kiosk. Video playback and image slideshows support digital signage, while URL Rotation & Planner can cycle through pages or schedule them for particular dates and times. For automation, FreeKiosk provides more than 40 REST API endpoints and native MQTT with Home Assistant auto-discovery. Its optional Cloud dashboard adds live device monitoring, remote commands, groups, configuration profiles, alerts and screenshots. The first Cloud device is free forever with no card required. Rates for 1–99 devices are €1.00 per device per month, and for 100–499 devices €0.80 per device per month; the first device is free in either range. The 500-plus rate is described as below the 499-device rate. The Android app is free and open source under the MIT license, while Cloud source code is not published. FreeKiosk requires Android 8.0 or later; Device Owner setup requires ADB and a factory-reset device.
