Description

Is there directions on how to auto start an app when the kiosk app starts? and if so, can you direct me to it or send it to me via email?

Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry. There is a checkbox in Configuration>>Applications>>Add/Edit, "Start application automatically". You can use this to launch your application as soon as SiteKiosk launches.

If you need to control what happens if your application is closed accidentally, you can use this script. But, you must not add your application to the Application list. Else, you will have a double launch or a conflict with your application: https://devblog.provisio.com/post/2017/12/18/How-to-Build-an-Extended-Script-Watchdog-for-External-Applications.aspx

This script also has a caveat, where it tracks the name of your application as shown in the taskbar. You might need to be mindful of that, if the name changes often.

Best regards,
Andre.
