• Guided Access

  • Guided Acess is a built-in setting within an iPad that allows a user to be 'locked' into one specific app.  It also allows for a timer to be set, after which the iPad becomes disabled until the owner enters their passcode.  This is very useful when utilizing an iPad with a student who may choose to leave the assigned app.  View Video Directions on how to use Guided Access
