Modern Kiosk

Kiosk functionality extension for Firefox browsers

Features & Capabilities

Modern Kiosk is a Firefox browser extension designed to enable kiosk functionality, allowing users to restrict browser access for public or shared environments. By setting a default kiosk URL, users can launch the browser in fullscreen kiosk mode, preventing navigation away from the specified page. The extension provides an easy-to-use interface through icons and context menus to set preferences and enter kiosk mode. While still under active development, upcoming features include domain whitelisting, OS access prevention, automatic window management, exit key combinations, and password protection. This extension offers a streamlined solution for deploying Firefox in kiosk settings, enhancing security and user control.

User Reviews

Modern Kiosk offers basic kiosk mode functionality in Firefox, providing a focused browsing environment. However, users frequently note the lack of automatic kiosk mode startup, missing keyboard shortcuts (such as exit keys), and absence of context menu lockdown. Many find it less useful compared to other add-ons like mkiosk. Additionally, planned improvements have seen little progress, limiting its current usefulness despite its potential.

  • Has potential to be useful when coupled with other tools or extensions.

Is Modern Kiosk Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Modern Kiosk requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
