Kiosk Mode
Locking a device to a single application so users can't exit it — essential for unattended public screens.
Without kiosk mode, anyone walking past your screen can press the home button and turn your digital signage into an exposed Android device. Spot's Android player supports device-owner-style kiosk lockdown: it launches on boot, runs on top, recovers from crashes, and requires a PIN or admin authentication to exit. This is non-negotiable for retail, hospitality and public-space deployments.
