The error shows it didn’t find a known authentication method.

> Kiosk mode for Homey Dashboards, that can only be exited with Face ID / Fingerprint / Pincode

(The kiosk mode uses the general device lock data).

Hint: with these kilometers long shop URL’s:  
you can omit all the spy and data gathering stuff right after `html`:

You are right, i must setup passcode for the device itself, the problem i dont think it’s convenient to put a pin code for a device attached on the wall inside your private room and this device meant to be used instantly to switch on/off your lights 😅

YW!  
In that case you don’t need to lock the dashboard?

Just try if you can remove the code of the device after you enable kiosk-mode. You will need to setup a code to exit kiosk-mode later. I do this on my Android-tablet.

I also use Fully kiosk to have the app running in kiosk-mode. Don’t now if Fully kiosk supports your devices.

Still i have to lock it, but i figured work around… setup lock screen for the device then kiosk mode… after that. remove the lock screen code.

Yes, thats. what i did, I believe for such devices it should work like that.
