Setting Up the iPad Kiosk Mode

After setting up your Front Desk Display, enable Kiosk Mode on your iPad. Kiosk Mode ensures the iPad will stay locked on the Mangomint app, and it restricts users from accessing any other apps, settings, or device functionalities.

On your iPad, go to Settings > Accessibility > Guided Access.

Enable Guided Access. Tap Passcode Settings.

Tap Set Guided Access Passcode. You can also use Touch ID or Face ID if it is available on your iPad.

Enter a passcode. You will need to use this passcode to disable Guided Access.

Tap Guided Access to go back to the Guided Access settings.

Tap Display Auto-Lock and select Never.

Disabling Auto-Lock

Go to Settings > Display & Brightness > Auto-Lock and select Never.

Enabling Kiosk Mode

Open the Mangomint app on your iPad.
