Hi all, 

Our tablets need to update however, I can't rememberif there's a way to get them all to update at the same time while staying in Kiosk mode ? Or do i have to take them out of Kiosk to update?

An apps that is actively running in the foreground will likely not be upgraded.  So, one of the very first condition is that you don't have any of the involved apps running during the upgrade.  This may be enforced with scripts for Android+ device agent supporting the more recent javascript APIi's.

On top of that, however, the situation varies with device firmware version, the kiosk mode parameters and each of the apps involved.    So you likely need to perform a test on your own device.

Hello Tim,

Thanks for your post!

Just to verify what updates are you referring to? System updates, app updates, or both?
