After [setting up your Front Desk Display](/learn/setting-up-your-front-desk-display/), enable Kiosk Mode on your iPad. Kiosk Mode ensures the iPad stays locked on the Mangomint app and restricts users from accessing other apps, settings, and device functionalities.

To enable Kiosk Mode:

1. Enable Guided Access on your iPad.

2. Disable Auto-Lock on your iPad.

3. [Enable Kiosk Mode](/learn/setting-up-your-ipad-on-kiosk-mode/#enable-kiosk-mode).
