A friend is helping to develop a learning platform for incarcerated people, which will run on android tablets. They’re still in the planning phase and the friend mentioned that they were looking into how they could restrict access to some tablet features (ex. camera, internet, certain apps) as these are hard requirements. Apparently there are some services that can help with that management.

Are there any tools I can pass along to them? I saw this page on Dedicated Devices, but I couldn’t find a guide on how to set it up. It seems like more of a technical process and it may require resources that the volunteer team doesn’t have?

edit: Thank you for the tips! I’m going to pass them along :)

    Off the top of my head I can only think of FullyKiosk. There is a version to force only one app or webpage.
