Please follow the steps below to put Chromebook into Kiosk mode.
- Wipe Data on Chromebook (Follow this link for instructions).
- After wipe is completed, you will be at the welcome screen. (Input your network information, but DO NOT LOGIN to the Chromebook)
- At the login screen, press Ctrl+Alt+K and enable Kiosk mode.
- Login into the Chromebook.
- Open a new tab in Chrome, and enter
chrome://extensions
in the address bar (also known as the omnibox). Click enter.- Check the box next to Developer Mode.
- Click Add kiosk application, and enter the ID of the Kiosk App you'd like to enable.
- Highlight the Kiosk App and select "auto launch".
- Press Enter or click Done.
- Reboot and when asked, enable app for Kiosk mode.
- Now the app will auto launch each time you reboot.
- To Turn off Kiosk Mode, begin by rebooting the Chromebook. While the device is starting up, press the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt+S to interrupt the process and return to the login screen.
Good luck!
