Kiosk Pro Basic User Reviews

I’d give this app negative stars if I could

The company’s marketing information is completely misleading, and this app is clumsy and doesn’t display keynote or pdf files as promised in a remotely usable way. There’s no way to try the app since it’s a different feature set than the free version, no refunds available, and the app UX reads like it was created decades ago. AVOID IT.

Great app and tech support

I’ve been using this app for museum kiosk applications. It is easy to use if you have just a little html experience. I recently had a minor problem with the idle timer and playing videos. The tech support was great! Fast, responsive, and the issue was resolved.

Works for a video kiosk

Most apps won’t play a local file but Kiosk Pro does. While it can be hard to figure out some parts, the customer support has always been fantastic so we keep using it at our museum.

Very reliable

Been using for many years and it works great!

Excellent app

Great app and tech support was super responsive

Super misleading description

Does not easily save an entire website for offline use AT ALL. That's the only thing I bought it for. You have to save it as files locally on your computer which I absolutely cannot get to work. App is difficult, ugly, and the description is SUPER misleading. Absolute waste of a ton of money.

Great app!

It works like a charm, many features, very customizable and the support is fast and really helpful.

Works Well in Museums

I’ve used this app numerous times to display exhibition content. The ability to stored files natively is a huge plus! Well worth it!

Submit button doesn’t work

Submit button doesn’t work at the end!!

Really poor...

...no design, poor instructions, and no way to save settings for future use, and no examples, and it can't upload pdfs, you have to use other software/pc/mac. A really unfriendly app with lots of tech instructions but no creative,

Total ripoff

Don't buy this software unless you are ready to learn HTML as well. The app itself can not do basic kiosk tasks. Buyer beware.

Offline Viewing More Complex Than Expected

This is a great app for professionals displaying their own content. Unfortunately offline viewing wasn't nearly as great or as easy as they made it sound ("No internet? Not a problem."). Offline viewing only works if you have access to and transfer all the content (html, css, files, etc) to the iOS device. It won't cache a webpage for offline viewing. That means I can't use this for offline viewing of the portfolio site I built through a 3rd party template service (i.e. Squarespace).

Works great with a excellent feature set!

The wide range of settings and features like identifiers made the project easy.

Bummed...

Our app did an automatic update while at a show. We didn't think much of it and let it continue. When the update was finally complete, our KioskPro presentation was blank leaving our iPad useless until we get back to the office to reload. Maybe we're missing something...?
My suggestion is to wait until you have access to your source files before performing the update.

Thank you for iOS 5 Support!

This app is excellent and super useful. And thank you so much for your continued support for iOS 5 as it lets us use iPad v1 devices and save hardware costs. The effort is very much appreciated!!

Working really well with my HTML5 content. THX

Solid app

I have this app running on an ipad in the lobby of a Four Seasons resort and it hasnt let me down yet. I was using a different kiosk system before that crashed many times requiring akward phone calls from the front desk. Now i never even think about the thing. As we deploy more ipad kiosks I will be getting the full pro version. Highly recommended.

Not intuitive!

Exactly what I'm looking for, but it's so unintuitive that it's too frustrating to actually use.

Keep looking

Don't waste your money, one of the more difficult programs I have used and I still never got it to do what I needed it to do.

Feature rich and rock solid

I'm using Kiosk Pro Plus to allow museum visitors to select one of four videos to view. The html based iPad interface includes museum graphic elements and snapshots of the four available videos. Using touch gestures, patron selects one of the snapshots and the associated video plays full-screen. The Kiosk Pro bottom navigation bar provides four direct links to video files, back/forward, and the Home button. Content delivery works perfect, everything is locked down, and the night mode provides a scheduled sleep-wake cycle. I did submit a support request to resolve an issue I had with the screen saver feature. I received a prompt reply acknowledging the issue, and a development team fix folded into a new general release - in under 10 days! Kiosk Pro is a great product, and the team behind it provides great customer support.
