Fully Exam Kiosk vs Inspera Integrity Browser

Fully Exam Kiosk locks an Android device to a configured exam website during an online exam. Students can use the quiz site and its features, while the kiosk blocks access to other websites, apps, and device features; it also blocks app switching and screen capture. It supports learning management systems that work with Safe Exam Browser, including Moodle. Teachers can prepare configurations and distribute them as FEK files, permalinks, or QR codes, and can import Moodle Safe Exam Browser configuration files (.seb). Other exam websites can be used if their URL is kept secret, since students could otherwise open the site in another browser. The app can run on school-owned or student-owned devices. Safe kiosk mode may require show-on-top and usage-data access permissions. Kiosk mode can end through a configured quit link, a password-protected quit button, or a device reboot. The plan is free, with free access stated to last at least until the end of 2027. The maker notes that exam-site speed, bugs, and user experience are outside its control.

Inspera Integrity Browser is a desktop lockdown application for online assessments. It controls which applications, device content and external resources candidates can access during an exam. Institutions can use strict lockdown or permit selected materials such as specified PDFs and URLs. With Inspera Assessment, the browser can block copying and pasting into or out of the assessment and prevent screenshots. Inspera Proctoring integrations can add video, audio and screen recording for invigilators. Institutions may enable up to five third-party applications, although service-desk activation and IIB 1.16.16 or newer are required on Windows, and the option is unavailable on macOS. Students download the application through their institution’s Inspera portal; it stays inactive until an assessment is configured. It runs on Windows and macOS, not Linux, Chromebooks, virtual machines, tablets or phones. IIB is a paid add-on to Inspera Assessment, with pricing on request.
