Control Which Apps Appear in Kiosk (15.3+)

FileWave Kiosk shows apps and other content assigned for self-service installation. A standard app assignment does not make the app appear in Kiosk, even when Allow removal is enabled.

Behavior in FileWave 15.3 and later

  • An app with a Kiosk assignment appears as self-service content.
  • An app with only a standard assignment does not appear in Kiosk.
  • If a user removes a standard assigned app, Fileset Verify can reinstall it while the assignment remains active. Kiosk does not need to list that app.
  • Removing the Kiosk assignment removes the item from self-service after the model update reaches the device.

If an app is missing from Kiosk

  1. Confirm that the app has a Kiosk assignment to the intended device or group.
  2. Confirm that the assignment or Deployment is active.
  3. For Apple Apps and Books content, confirm that the correct token has available licenses.
  4. Update the model and allow the device to check in and refresh Kiosk.
