RustDesk Remote Desktop vs NeatKiosk

An open-source remote desktop application. The open source TeamViewer alternative. Source code: https://github.com/rustdesk/rustdesk Doc: https://rustdesk.com/docs Please be reminded that this app only has the ability to control, and it does not have the functionality of being controlled or screen sharing. WARNING: YOU MAY BE BEING SCAMMED! If you are on the phone with someone you DON'T know AND TRUST who has asked you to install RustDesk, do not install and hang up immediately. They are likely a scammer trying to steal your money or other private information.

Turn any iPad or iPhone into a locked-down kiosk in under a minute. NeatKiosk shows one website full-screen, keeps visitors on it, and resets to a clean state after inactivity, so a shared device stays on task all day. And it is genuinely free: every feature is included, with no in-app purchases, no subscriptions, no watermark and no upsells. WHY NEATKIOSK • 100% free: all features, no paywalls • Private by design: no accounts, no servers, no analytics, no tracking. App Store privacy: Data Not Collected. • Works offline: what worked yesterday works today, connection or not • A clean, modern interface built natively for iPad and iPhone FEATURES • Lock to one website, full-screen: no address bar, no toolbars, gestures off • URL allow and deny lists: keep visitors on your pages and block everything else • Idle auto-reset: return to the home page and clear cookies, cache, history and local storage between visitors • Attract screen: when nobody has touched the kiosk for a while, show a page of your choice (a slideshow, a video, an announcement) and return the moment someone taps • Scheduled page refresh: keep a menu board or dashboard current without touching the device, with logins and cookies kept • PIN-protected settings and a hidden admin exit: visitors cannot leave; you always can • Force full brightness and keep the screen awake • Night blackout schedule: dim the display during off-hours (for example 22:00 to 08:00) and restore it automatically • A dropped connection keeps your page on screen with a small "Offline, retrying" badge instead of an error • Light and dark interface, in English, German, Spanish, Italian and French FOR FLEETS • Works with Guided Access, MDM Single App Mode and Managed App Configuration • 19 configuration keys, and a re-pushed configuration applies live to a running kiosk: no reinstall, no reset PERFECT FOR • Restaurant and café menus or ordering pages • Museum and exhibit displays • Trade shows and event booths • Front-desk sign-in, registration and waiver pages • Retail catalogues and product finders • Wall-mounted home dashboards HOW IT WORKS 1. Enter the website you want to display 2. Set your idle reset, URL rules and an admin PIN 3. Turn on Guided Access (or MDM Single App Mode) and walk away To get back in while the kiosk is running, press and hold the top-left corner for about 3 seconds and enter your PIN. No account. No cost. No tracking. Just a neat kiosk.
