## What is Kioskope?

Kioskope is a kiosk browser with a real barcode scanner built in. Point it at your web app; the camera scans into any form field. No scanner hardware, no scanning SDK, no MDM required.

SCANNING
- 1D, QR, PDF417, Aztec, Data Matrix, and more, decoded on device by Apple's VisionKit
- Live Text capture for printed serials and labels
- Single or continuous scan, duplicate debounce, beep, haptic, torch
- Prefix, suffix, TAB and ENTER terminators, strip rules

OUTPUT
- Keyboard wedge: scans type into the focused field on any site, no page changes needed
- JS bridge and DOM events for pages that want structured results
- URL template: navigate to a lookup URL per scan
- Drop-in compatibility with the scan APIs of Zebra Enterprise Browser, Kiosk Pro, and Fully Kiosk; existing pages run unmodified

KIOSK
- Start URL, host allowlist, popup and scheme blocking
- Show or hide browser chrome
- Idle reset with optional session clear
- Offline retry screen; prevents sleep
- Autonomous Single App Mode on supervised devices

CONFIG
- First run wizard: enter a URL and go
- Local admin behind a PIN
- Export config as a QR code, scan it on the next device
- Full AppConfig support for MDM; managed settings take precedence

REQUIREMENTS
- iOS or iPadOS 17 or later
- A12 chip or newer: iPhone XS, iPad (8th gen), iPad Air (3rd gen), iPad mini (5th gen), iPad Pro (2018), and later

Kioskope is a one-time purchase. No subscription, no accounts, no cloud: everything runs on the device.
