SureFox Kiosk Browser Lockdown

Secure Android browsing with SureFox—kiosk lockdown, whitelisted websites, and remote management for safe, controlled web access. The SureFox app is an enterprise-grade solution designed to restrict web access on Android tablets and smartphones. Ideal for deployment in public areas such as restaurants, libraries, hospitals, cabs, trade shows, schools, and field force environments, SureFox ensures that users can only access approved websites.

Kiosk Mode Browser

SureFox transforms tablets and smartphones into dedicated kiosk devices. It restricts browsing exclusively to selected websites, providing a safe and controlled environment for users. Full device lockdown is available in the Pro version, preventing access to all other apps and settings.

Private Browsing and Security

The browser includes a private browsing mode that does not store session data, cookies, or cache. Administrators can password-protect browser settings to prevent tampering and enforce security protocols, ensuring that users cannot bypass restrictions.

Remote Device Management

SureFox integrates with SureMDM, enabling administrators to remotely deploy configurations, update settings, and enforce policies across multiple devices. Over-the-air configuration simplifies large-scale deployment and management.

Customization and Branding

Admins can display custom error pages, lock screen orientation, enable fullscreen mode, and schedule device sleep and wakeup times to save power. Digital signage or branding can be enforced through admin-pushed images or videos as screensavers or wallpapers, ensuring consistent corporate identity.

User Experience Enhancements

Features like tabbed browsing, zoom control, file download manager, and URL categorization improve usability while maintaining control. Idle-time page reloads and the option to disable auto-suspend keep devices ready for use without interruptions.

HTML5 and Local Content Support

SureFox supports HTML5 websites and can display locally stored web pages or media assets pushed by administrators. This makes it ideal for interactive kiosks or offline content deployments where access to the internet may be limited.

Licensing Options

Basic License: Restricts users to whitelisted websites while allowing access to other device apps. Best paired with SureLock.

Pro License: Enforces full kiosk lockdown, preventing access to all other apps or system features. SureFox restarts automatically after reboot to maintain lockdown.
