Kiosk Mode - Subviews

Configuration Frontend

It drives me nuts that I cannot use Kiosk mode with subviews. I need a back button for my media panel in the subview because its fullscreen, BUT I cannot run Kiosk mode if I want the back button up top. Has anyone figured out how to make this happen?

If you use kiosk: true, it hides the siderbar and header. The subviews use the header for the back button and room name. This is why you can’t see them.

A work around is to allow the header, but to hide the sidebar and overflow (3 dots in the top right).

kiosk_mode:
  non_admin_settings:
    hide_sidebar: true
    hide_overflow: true
    ignore_entity_settings: true

The trade off is that you have an empty header on your home screen.

But at least you can navigate back from any subviews again.
