Also you can restrict function on the buttons so I always set the volume to an adequate level and then disable volume control for the kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-can-restrict-your-ipad-to-certain-apps#post-2870605 Wed, 06 Feb 2019 03:57:12 +0000 MACSUNSHINE 2870605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Easily my favorite feature and the timer is amazing as well.

Definitely going to use it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-can-restrict-your-ipad-to-certain-apps#post-2870590 Tue, 05 Feb 2019 23:15:31 +0000 bhbee 2870590@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes it is the best!! I think you can also set a timer if you want? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-can-restrict-your-ipad-to-certain-apps#post-2870586 Tue, 05 Feb 2019 22:35:42 +0000 Sams Mom 2870586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Hypatia: I loved this feature on my iPhone! On my new phone (pixel XL) I think you can just lock the app instead of circling restricted areas. I think I liked the circle feature more so you can pause workout having to exit the access. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-can-restrict-your-ipad-to-certain-apps#post-2870585 Tue, 05 Feb 2019 22:22:50 +0000 Hypatia 2870585@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just learned this. If you go to Settings - Accessibility - Guided Access, you can create a pass code and then, after opening the app you want to be the only one available, press the home button three times. After that, the home button will no longer work, and they have to stay within that app. </p> <p> It also lets you circle parts of the screen you don’t want them to be able to access. So you could start a movie in Netflix and disable the back button at the top left, preventing them from selecting a different movie. </p> <p>To exit Guided Access, you press thr home button three times again and then select the End option, entering the pass code when prompted. </p>
