Greetings:

I am looking at deploying a large number of iOS devices and want to lock them to Safari Single-App mode but also specify the URL that the devices use (basically turning them in to information kiosks). Can setting the URL be done through the JSS without touching the devices?
THX!

I think you need to use the Casper Focus App for that.

Great idea! I completely forgot about Focus...

You can do it without Focus. Just make a config profile with Content Filter set to Built-In: Specific Websites.

Emmert - THX!! I tried that with great success. The end user however was concerned that safari in single app mode with this Content Filter did not run in full screen mode. I can get full-screen mode to work on Web Clips, but not in Safari using single app mode. Maybe I am missing something?
