    For sure there's a documentation but only how to configure it on admin side (not how they made it programmatically of course).

    There are also other MDM's which seem be able to do the same, just do a websearch (for ex. "mdm android kiosk mode") and you will find some examples.

Could you give me any advice? 

 

I use the MDM api to set my app as kiosk.
"applications": [
  {
    "packageName": "com.example.kiosk",
    "installType": "FORCE_INSTALLED",
     "defaultPermissionPolicy": "GRANT"
  },

  ........(other whitelist apps)

]

 

I try to exit Kiosk mode via calling stopLockTask in my Activity, but it still be launched via "Android Device Policy" immediately.

 

Thanks

As said, I'm not a developer i can just say how they handle it from user perspective.

But when i Google a bit and read thru the android documentation (Apps are listed alphabetical) i think it's an custom kiosk app they provide (as we can decide the order and do a lot more for the layout and so on).
