Hi, i have an iPad and i would like to create an account for another person. Is it possible on iPad....i mean that he would sign into iPad with his own password and have own personal user account for everything he needs like email etc... Thank you for your help :)
An iPad is a single-user device.
Unlike other computers with which you may be familiar, that support multiple user profiles - other than “managed” educational environments, OS/iPadOS devices are not intended to be shared.
Be aware that if you sign-out of iCloud and other Apple services - and allow another user to sign-in - you’ll not be able to change back for 90-days.
So as to prevent account abuse, some critical Apple services will only allow one change of signed-in AppleID (on a device) in a 90-day period.
In conclusion, unless you fully understand and accept the implications, you would be well advised to reconsider any attempt to share your iPad with another user.
Apple iOS/iPadOS devices are single user devices, ONLY.
You start having issues if two or more people start using just one device.
Sorry.
iPads are kinda like iPhones. Work best when only one user touches it.
Thank you!
