You enable it in the settings and that’s it…
I’ve managed to create a script in home assistant that uses the REST API of Fully Kiosk to open the camera feed in the browser window. It also stops the screensaver before opening the camera feed.
My wall mounted tablet is displaying a photo’s slideshow (from google photo’s) and I would like to have a view of my front door when my doorbell is triggered.
You can use the following shell script to do this. Change tablet-living to your ip or host of your device, xxxx to your password, and camera.outside to your camera entity.
I still run lannouncer on it for the doorbell sound itself, since I don’t think Fully Kiosk can play audio files via the REST api.
#!/bin/sh
curl "http://tablet-living.local:2323/?password=xxxx&type=json&cmd=toForeground"
JS="document.querySelector('home-assistant').shadowRoot.querySelector('home-assistant-main').fire('hass-more-info',{entityId:'camera.outside'})"
curl -g "http://tablet-living.local:2323/?password=xxxx&type=json&cmd=loadURL&url=javascript:$JS"
EDIT: you need a minimum of Fully Kiosk 1.22.1-beta-1 for this.

you use HASSIO?
Nope. Just the official docker image. Why?
I am in hassio trying to figure how to run the script (newb here)
For those who are interested, I’ve created the initial version of a platform and component:

Hi, this is really cool, do you also have a way to close the more-info dialog via command?
Thanks JKW
This thread is awesome! Building upon these posts, I was able to get this working without using curl, control the tablet display using a light template (on, off, brightness). I can select which dashboard (appdaemon/hadashboard) to display with input select and templated rest_command

You need to specify null as entityId.

sound like you have all your tablet point to the same “input_select”
Fantastic, thanks
Anyone having issues with fully on a fire tab no longer dimming the screen. I think the last update has broken it for me.
The screen saver still starts but the screen does not dim.

I’m using the below as a value template for a screensaver activation switch. (Thanks @RagingComputer & @xstrex for examples). It triggers instantly but lags in reflecting its current state. Anybody know of a better way of doing it?

TLDR: there is a dedicated fire os version of fully now. https://www.ozerov.de/fully-kiosk-browser/#download-box
I was amazed by the fully browser and decided to buy a dedicated tablet as wall panel.
The fire 8.0 was very cheap these days and I gave it a go. It turned out that most functions didn’t work on fire os as they did on pure Android.
So I asked the developer if he can improve fire os support. It turned out that he didn’t have a fire os device but that we both live in Germany.
So I sent him my tablet about a month ago.
He returned it yesterday and published a link to a improved fire os version that works significantly better on my tablet.
Thought I let you know, as this is a dedicated APK that will never make it into the Playstore update. https://www.ozerov.de/fully-kiosk-browser/#download-box

Whats the best tablet and wallmount to get for this usage ?
This is the gear I ended up using for mine.

Maybe he’d be willing to put it in the Amazon store? Fire tablets go on sale quite frequently but I’ve held off on buying one because I don’t want to mess around with a browser that doesn’t quite work. I also don’t want to side-load apps, it’s just too easy to forget about updates or you end up getting malware installed.
Plus, I’d even be willing to pay a buck or two if it helps out the developer.
