cordova-plugin-kiosk-launcher

This plugin is up for adoption

This plugin makes a cordova app become a launcher (homescreen).

Based of [https://github.com/hkalina/cordova-plugin-kiosk].

Sets a Cordova application as a launcher

This plugin does not change behavior of application until it is set as launcher - home screen of the device.

Escape from app with this plugin is possible only using javascript call Kiosk.exitKiosk() or by uninstalling app using adb. (Keeping USB debug allowed recommended.) If applications starts as usual (not as launcher), no restrictions are applied.

This plugin only works on Android

This plugin has only been tested in Cordova 3.2 or greater, and its use in previous Cordova versions is not recommended (potential conflict with keyboard customization code present in the core in previous Cordova versions).
