Go to Settings > General > Kiosk Url
Tap the three dots in the top toolbar, then tap Settings.

Tap Kiosk Url and change the URL to a url of your choice, e.g. http://www.google.com and tap ok.
When exiting back to the main browser window (by pressing back) your URL will have loaded.
To use a html file stored on the device you must use the file:/// prefix when entering your URL. An example would be something like file:///sdcard/webfolder/index.html within Settings > General > Kiosk Url
Alternatively you can point to kioskbrowser/localcontent by just using a simple variable: %LOCALCONTENT% i.e. %LOCALCONTENT%/index.htm
Or %LOCALSTORAGE%/myfolder/index.htm (requires version 2.0.36 or higher to use this parameter).
