| + | If sealed mode is required in conjunction with kiosk mode, please apply the seal mode first, the place the device into a kiosk. | ||
| + | To revert this functionality, take the phone out of kiosk first, then set sealed mode as OFF. Turning sealed mode OFF whilst still in kiosk mode will NOT work. | ||

| + | This button gets all apps on the device that are Home Screen apps. A home screen app is capable of being a standalone app and would be used as the only app on the device. Typically, once a home screen app has been applied to the device, from the device user's point of view, the app is the only app on the phone and there is no way of navigating away from it, even if the device is rebooted. | ||

| + | **__Disable Kiosk Mode__** | ||
| + | |||
