Fully Kiosk Browser for Home Assistant (built-in integration)

About

Fully Kiosk Browser is a built-in integration that connects Home Assistant to the Fully Kiosk Browser app on a tablet or similar device. It communicates locally and can be found on the network automatically, then added through the UI with the device host and the Remote Admin password. It adds sensors for battery temperature, current page, foreground app, memory and storage, along with binary sensors for kiosk mode, device admin and charging state. Switches and numbers control the screen, screensaver, kiosk lock, maintenance mode, motion detection and brightness levels. Buttons restart the browser or device, clear the cache, load the start URL and move the app between foreground and background. Actions load a URL, change a configuration parameter or start another app, and notifiers show overlay messages or speak text.
