The Smartabase Kiosk app recently received a second update to deliver a new security feature and some small user experience adjustments.

  • Find the most suitable version of the Kiosk app for the device it’s going to be used on.
  • Install and log in to the Kiosk app.
  • Set up each kiosk for its intended use.
  • Be aware of our recommendations for using the Kiosk app.

Automatic exit from coach settings

If you need to unexpectedly leave your kiosk while adjusting the coach settings, you can now be extra confident that unauthorised access to the settings won’t happen. The coach settings part of the Kiosk app has been updated with an automatic time-out feature, which means that after 60 seconds of inactivity, you’ll be prompted to choose whether you want to continue editing. If you don’t respond to the prompt, the Kiosk app will revert to showing the athlete view.

Bug fixes

  • We’ve updated the behaviour of PINs so they won’t reset after an internet connection loss.
  • The maximum number of records the Kiosk app uses to calculate compliance has been expanded.
  • We’ve resolved a logic issue that affected fields which are required but also set to entry by coaches only. These fields will not prevent an athlete from filling in an event form.

Highlights from your last release notes

In the last release notes, for version 1.1 of the Kiosk app, we announced:

  • An increase to the toggle size for the slider question type to make it easier for you to update these values.
  • Some additional background work for configuring event forms for the Kiosk app in the future.
