About WebFrame Kiosk
WebFrame allows you to turn an iOS device into a single-purpose kiosk displaying full-screen web apps, web pages, multimedia, documents, and more. WebFrame features the following capabilities:
• Full Screen Browser: WebFrame provides a full-screen browser with no address or navigation bars. This allows you to create a true kiosk experience and keeps users in the web site, web app, document, or multimedia you intended.
• Approved Domain List: Limit browsing to approved domains to prevent users from leaving the site or web app you have configured.
• Inactivity Timeout: Monitor user activity and reload homepage, dim the screen, and/or load a blank screen if no user activity has taken place for a selected duration. Optionally, you can choose to clear the browser cache on timeout to ensure previous user session data is deleted.
• Augmented Reality: Create an infinite showroom with augmented reality experiences. AR models in .USDZ or .Reality format will be loaded into an AR Quick View.
• QR and Bar Code Reader: Allow customers to lookup products, allow employees to access and/or login to unlinked pages, or more. Reader returns string to JavaScript to handle as you wish.

• Smart Navigation Buttons: WebFrame now supports navigation buttons that will automatically show and hide depending on the ability to navigate backward and forward, and home. They can also be configured to dynamically slide offscreen as the page scrolls to minimize their visual impact. Finally, they can be repositioned vertically on the screen to prevent obscuring underlying page content.
• User Interaction Controls: Control how users interact with your kiosk and allow or disallow swipe navigation, pull-to-refresh, vertical scroll and horizontal pan gestures, pinch and double-tap zoom gestures, or disable user interaction entirely.
• Printer Support: Allow users to print from your kiosk using HTML window.print() capabilities or disable to prevent printing.
• Local Configuration: All configuration of WebFrame is handled locally through the iOS Settings app or through in-app settings.
• Full Screen Browser: WebFrame provides a full-screen browser with no address or navigation bars. This allows you to create a true kiosk experience and keeps users in the web site, web app, document, or multimedia you intended.

3.9.1
Sep 22, 2022
Updates:
• New onboarding experience to ease initial setup.
• New JavaScript API for opening in-app settings from a webpage.
• New "User Agent ID" text setting which is appended to the end of the browser's UserAgent string to allow you to track individual kiosks from your existing site analytics tools.
• Updated logging to use specific-purpose logs that can be filtered by category.
• Updated to include JavaScript console logging to app logs.
• Updated gesture recognizers to better support trackpads.
• QR code scanner now uses a full-screen viewfinder.
• QR code scanner now supports rotation.
• QR scanner will be closed by inactivity timers.
• Navigate to the configured kiosk home page URL from within a web page using “webframepro://home" as the href or calling "window.home()" from a script.

• Home Indicator will be hidden until user interacts with screen.

• Dim Screen Idle Timeout: Sets screen brightness to 0% after a specified timeout and restores brightness upon user interaction.
