# Assigned access multi-app kiosk

An assigned access multi-app kiosk runs one or more apps from the desktop. People using the kiosk see a customized Start that shows only the tiles for the apps that are allowed. With this approach, you can configure a locked-down experience for different account types. A multi-app kiosk is appropriate for devices that are shared by multiple people. Here's a [guide](/windows/configuration/lock-down-windows-10-to-specific-apps) on how to set up a multi-app kiosk.

## Benefits of using a multi-app kiosk

The benefit of a kiosk that runs multiple specified apps is to provide an easy-to-understand experience for individuals by showing them only the things they need to use, and removing the things they don't need to access.

A multi-app kiosk is appropriate for devices that are shared by multiple people. Each user can authenticate with the device and receive a customized lockdown experience based on the configuration.
