Configuring the kiosk settings for RingCentral
Rooms controller
Last updated on November 24, 2021
When setting up RingCentral Rooms on the iPad (controller), you need to ensure the settings are correctly configured to set it for kiosk mode. This will allow RingCentral Rooms to start and prevent users from using other applications on the iPad.
Note: There is a known issue with iOS 12 wherein the iPad goes to sleep when in Guided Access mode. In order to prevent this, please update the device to iOS 12.1.11 or later, then enable the Mirror Display Auto-Lock setting as shown in Step 9 under Set up Guided Access.
