Does anyone know if "Start its web browser and have that browser display a designated start page." is specific thing for this tablet or if that is "normal" in android?

I want to do something similar for anki cards I'm struggling with, and I dunno if I'm in for a world of pain. I was considering https://shop.boox.com/products/go6 for my needs as it's a bit cheaper.

When starting Chromium you can pass a `--kiosk` option with one (or more ) URLs of the pages you want to display

I've used https://www.fully-kiosk.com/ on Android tablets before (as meeting room status screens) and that's worked really well

I don't know the specific mechanism used in the OP, but android has several mechanisms that can be used to start an app on reboot. Take a look around a Google search, I'm sure you'll find what you need
