About Flow Kiosk

Flow Kiosk is the easiest way to create, deploy and manage interactive iPad kiosks.

With Flow Kiosk, you quickly and easily create secure, interactive kiosks to engage, inform and transact with your visitors. No programmer needed -- #nocode

Flow Kiosk is NOT a web browser experience, but you can link to web pages via our 'inApp' web browser. Flow Kiosk is a native iPad app that is super responsive and engaging and does not need an Internet connection to work. Works offline!

Create:
- Start with more than a dozen professionally designed templates or create from scratch.
- Customize with your text, photos, videos, PDFs, sounds, and more.
- Add links/buttons with custom transitions.
- You are in complete control of the canvas with layers, shapes, transparent images and much more.
- Add links to web sites and even link to other Flow Kiosk/FlowVella presentations.
- Create right on the iPad or via the FlowVella Mac app.
- Add media from Dropbox, iCloud, Google Search and more. You can even drag and drop photos, videos, PDFs, and sounds from any app.

Secure:
- Launch into ‘Kiosk Mode’ to secure your presentations
- When in Kiosk Mode, visitors can’t exit your presentation
- Checks to see if your iPad is in 'Guided Access' so remain in Flow Kiosk only

Engage:
- Use autoplaying, looping video to attract visitors to your Flow (presentation)
- Add eye popping images, text, and even animated GIFs

Inform:
- Create real interactive content experiences with videos, photo galleries, text, sound and PDFs

Transact:
- Collect leads and customer information with our forms

iPad Kiosk Mode:

Offline:
- All content works without an Internet connection (except web sites and YouTube videos)
- Videos, photos, and PDFs are downloaded and saved to the device

What's New in the Latest Version 2.60

Last updated on Mar 8, 2024
Old Versions
By customer request, a new 'kiosk mode' setting that secures the 'inApp' web browser by deleting all data each session. In this case, the kiosk is in a public setting and links to a login web page. With this setting turned on, the username, password or any other information is saved into the browser beyond the current session.
Bug fixes and optimizations.
Under the hood, working on some new stuff, but not yet out nor available.
Thank you for your continued support!

May 30, 2023
A customer found an issue with iOS 16.4 and newer where videos that are NOT set to autoplay and while in kiosk mode, video controls are visible, the video controls did not automatically disappear - we built a feature that closely resembles how it used to work in prior versions of iOS.

Apr 13, 2022
Couple of new bug fixes on certain sized iPads in viewing mode.
Updates to the design of kiosk mode features/settings incorporating the QR Code Remote into the main kiosk mode settings.
Other fixes and tweaks.

From 2.41 Version:

Based on customer feedback and request, we made some changes in the kiosk mode settings.

1 - The timer reset for activity now starts at 30 seconds and still goes to 15 minutes.
2 - We have a new on/off switch that allows a video to finish playing before the timer fires - for example, the timer is set for 1 minute, but there is a video on a screen that is autoplay and a user visited, or is a video they launched and it is longer than 1 minute, the video will finish playing, and then the timer will fire.
3 - When the reset timer is fired, we now use a 'fade in' transition to the front page.
4 - We changed the layout on the 'Night Mode' screen - this is a cosmetic change.

We love getting feedback and requests from our users, please visit flowkiosk.com and reach out to us if you have any specific requests.

We appreciate your business and we are building the best iPad kiosk app to engage with audiences at events, exhibits, museums, trade shows, conferences, retail, and more.

From Version 2.40

Fixes:
Bluetooth keyboards and presentation remotes like AirTurn were not working on iOS/iPadOS 15 iPhones and iPads and now are working as intended.
Within the Team Flows tab, for our PRO users, flows were not updating properly after an update was posted. This is fixed. And you can also pull to tap and pull down to check for the latest off the server.

Lots of fixes and optimizations for iOS 14.
Fixed issues with YouTube searching.
Fixed an issue where a YouTube could continue to play even when you closed that screen.
1.62
Oct 15, 2019
1.62 - Optimize the linking between flows. Fixed an issue with YouTube videos.
1.61 - This update is for iOS 13.1.2 and above where the iOS Guided Access bug was resolved.
This is the first Flow Kiosk update for iOS 13. This update is about our continued drive for better quality and dependability, a future version will have more iOS 13 specific features. We make it a priority to listen to our customers' feature requests to ensure that Flow Kiosk is the best iPad kiosk solution on the market and we have built two new features driven by these requests.
Updates and fixes
New Features
- Added two *NEW* kiosk mode features
- Ability to *TURN OFF VIDEO CONTROLS* in full screen videos. The "Kevin D." of the Gates Foundation feature. This feature was requested because while in kiosk mode and 'guided access', viewers were able to adjust volume while videos were playing. Now, when this is enabled, there are no controls, the video plays and when it's finished, it returns to the previous screen.
- Added benefit of this feature is that in iOS 13, you can now pinch or swipe down on a video to stop it, but when the video controls are removed, users won't be able to do this, thus keeping them in the video until it finishes playing.
- *NIGHT MODE* - this allows you to set a timer for when the screen turns black and turns off any looping video that may be on the first screen of a flow. You also set a time to restart. This is great for both museums/galleries and trade shows and a feature that has been requested for some time.
- Better 'inter flow' linking, downloading and working offline. The ability to link one flow to another is one of the key differentiators of FlowVella and Flow Kiosk. Prior to this release, opening a linked flow that hadn't been opened before was cumbersome and offline linking was unreliable. Now, when attempting to open a 'linked' flow, the download and load process is streamlined, you do NOT need to load the flow beforehand. Opening linked flows that are already downloaded now works flawlessly (according to our tests).
- If PRO user, app will preload all media including videos and PDFs

NOTE - We are seeing a bug with iOS 13 where the iPad is not aware if 'Guided Access' is activated. This affects our feature that checks 'guided access' and pushes the user to put the app into Guided Access.

Fixes:
- Form editing was not working properly in iPad Pros that were larger than 9.7 inches.
- Placement of auto advance timer is fixed for flows in and out of Kiosk Mode.
- When an inactivity reset timer is fired, and in a linked flow, in a gallery or video, now resets properly.
- Smoother animation when closing a linked flow.
- Update kiosk instructions depending on IOS software version and iPad model
- Lots of other small fixes.

Known issues: in iOS 13, grabbing preview images from a video is not working yet, needs to be rebuilt for iOS 13.
