App Kiosk Mode

The App Kiosk Mode is designed for providing the possibility to let unauthorized persons fill out forms in a secure way. In "single"-App Kiosk Mode an authorized person has to open a new form, switches to App Kiosk Mode and can then pass along the device to another person. To unlock the kiosk mode a pin is required. In "sequential"-App Kiosk Mode once it is activated, one form after another is opened without leaving the App Kiosk Mode.

Formdefinition

To enable the App Kiosk Mode a new App Kiosk Mode var tag has to be set within the form tag:

<var data-hf-name="AppKioskMode" ... ><var>

There are several configuration options

Property	Options/Type	Description
data-hf-unlockcode*	number	Defines the App Kiosk Mode unlock code. Only numbers are allowed
data-hf-locktime*	number	Defines the App Kiosk Mode lock time in minutes. After n minutes the kiosk mode would be locked.
data-hf-kioskmode*	Enum: single	Defines the app kiosk mode type: Single means that the app kiosk mode is activated on the formpage.
data-hf-kioskapprovelabel	string	Defines the wording of the App Kiosk Mode approve label.
data-hf-data-hf-kiosklocklabel	string	Defines the wording of the App Kiosk Mode lock label.
data-hf-kioskactivatefeatures	boolean	Defines if the form-activated app features (camera, sketches, map etc.) are also activated in the App Kiosk Mode
data-hf-kioskshowpinonlock	boolean	Defines if pin is shown to the user when the app is getting to be locked in App Kiosk Mode (only single kiosk mode)
