[android-developers] Allow only single application to run on Android device

[Archana]

Hi,
Is it possible to run single application in android and restricting
all other.
For ex. I have application with name  xyz so is it possible to run
this alone and block all other apps
like -third party apps, youtube, maps etc.

I saw this this to be achieved in Iphone by doing some Iphone utility
configuration.
But do we have something similar to this.?

You are welcome to make your app a home screen, and thereby attempt to
limit users, but anyone with a brain bigger than a walnut will reboot
the phone in safe mode and remove your app if they so choose. The only
way to prevent that is to build your own firmware, where your app *is*
the home screen.
