Microsoft Edge Android Activities

Question

I have an android device running Edge 120.0.2210.157. I am also utilizing Zebra's EnterpriseHomeScreen application to limit what apps are displayed. One of the apps I have shown is a shortcut to open Edge to a company resource. However it is displayed with the address bar and navigation bar at the bottom of the page using the Activity portion of the configuration file for EnterpriseHomeScreen I can execute actions/activities within the app. Is there one for me to hide the address bar/navigation bar with an android intent? Like running edge in full screen? Or is there a way to configure that separately?

Hi @MMCBehr You can use kiosk mode (single app or multi-app), and the platform disables the familiar user interface and workflow by default. When a device is running in kiosk state, the system changes certain behaviors, including:

1. The device's status bar will be removed from view. System information and notifications are hidden from end users.
2. Device navigation buttons (such as Home and Overview buttons) will be disabled and removed from view.
3. The device's lock screen (such as keypad lock) is disabled. ​You can refer to this document: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/mem/intune/configuration/device-restrictions-android-for-work
