Webview Kiosk

Turn your Android device into a locked-down web page in fullscreen mode.

Webview Kiosk is a free and open-source Android application for secure, kiosk-style web browsing.

It can function as digital signage, a kid-friendly restricted browser, an immersive web reader, an interactive sign-up form, a home assistant dashboard, or simply a wall clock.

Designed for small businesses and device owners who are looking for a simple and standalone Kiosk solution.
