What Kiosk Tablet? - Lemmy

I’ve been using an Amazon tablet with Fully Kiosk for a few months but it frankly sucks ass. Keeps resetting itself or kicking back to the Amazon home screen to name a few issues. If money isn’t a factor, what tablet do you think would be the dream choice for integrating as a wall mountable Hass tablet? Fully Kiosk is a great app but still very hacky, so I’d like a tablet that doesn’t require workarounds to keep it in kiosk mode. I hate telemetry and spyware as well so I guest that puts anything Amazon or Google based out of the equation.

I use to have the same thing but moved away from the tablet solution and I got myself a pi, and then setup a script to auto start (after boot and auto login) the browser in full screen “kiosk” mode on my home assistant site. I then bought this to attach to it:

I also bought a case for the screen and pi to fit in for a nice visual display (although these days the thing is embedded in my wall), but it looks like the case is now unavailable so might require looking around for one.

This is what I would do if I had the time to spare. I’m surprised there isn’t a market for custom Homeassistant tablet devices.
