An example of Samsung Android kiosk mode

Samsung kiosk mode is deprecated in Android 8.1 and above. You must implement Android kiosk mode instead. See Setting the kiosk policy for Android managed devices.

Consider a school that wants to install the followings apps on several tablets. Although all the apps are installed on each tablet, the apps that are displayed depend on which user has logged in.

This section covers the apps and the LDAP groups that should have access to them.
