What's new in Kiosk Satellite v0.33.2-beta
A kiosk exit gesture that survives button mashing (#120)
Two new options join the Kiosk exit gesture setting: 5 fast taps, holding the last and 7 fast taps, holding the last. With one of these selected, the menu only opens when the final tap of the chain is held down and kept still for a second.
This fixes accidental exits on dashboards with buttons that invite rapid tapping, like a TV remote's volume control: mashing a button produces plenty of fast taps, but every press ends in a lift, never a deliberate hold. The hold shape was also chosen so it cannot collide with anything configured on the Gestures screen, since a corner hold requires a corner and a multi-finger hold requires two or three fingers, while the exit hold is one finger anywhere after the tap chain.
Existing installs keep their current exit gesture; the new variants are opt-in from Settings > Kiosk Mode, on the device or in the remote admin.
Improvements
- The Gestures documentation now spells out how the exit gesture and its hold variants stay independent from configured gestures.
