In their own words
Fully Kiosk Browser
Fully Kiosk Browser turns an Android device into a restricted kiosk browser and app launcher. It can allowlist websites and lock other apps into kiosk mode, with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript displayed through Android WebView and HTTP, HTTPS, or file URLs supported. PLUS controls include a PIN-protected exit, restrictions on apps and Android settings, and controls for system bars and hardware buttons. Remote Admin provides device information, settings and file management, screenshots, and a REST interface. Fully Cloud EMM can organize, monitor, provision, and remotely configure devices while managing apps. Integrations include REST API, JavaScript, MQTT, barcode, QR, NFC, camera, Bluetooth, and sensor support. Fully Kiosk apps support Android OS versions 6 to 17, though Android derivatives may have restricted features or serious issues. The maker describes the app as under 10 MB, with no ads or tracking, and says rooting is unnecessary. Deployment is hybrid, with digital-signage and session-reset support. Pricing starts from $10.99, and a free trial is available.
OpenKiosk
OpenKiosk is a remotely configurable public browser terminal based on Mozilla Firefox. It runs as a system-integrated standalone browser, with system-level controls intended to keep public users within web browsing. Administrators can register devices for remote management using a token and change settings through a web interface. After registration succeeds, the token is removed from the device, so a backup token is needed for later device management.
Kiosk settings cover fullscreen display, toolbar and URL bar visibility, an on-screen keyboard, and whether bookmarks persist. Administrators can set session timers and choose whether cache, history, and cookies carry over. URL allowlists or blocklists are available, with a strict mode that checks page resources and may disrupt pages if rules omit required resources. The settings can disable local terminal access and start a clean browser profile. Downloads and uploads are labeled insecure when enabled; uploads can expose the terminal filesystem to web pages. OpenKiosk is free and open source under the Mozilla Public License. Current beta installation instructions require Debian 13 on x86_64 or aarch64 hardware.
