Multiple User Device

How to setup the iPad to be able to use it with several users?

I want every user to have their account, so that the Apps I have can not be accessed by them.

Creating an account for children does not resolve the problem, for login into a different user account on Apple Store does not give me a new interface.

Is it serious that Apple is unable to build a fundamental feature like this?

Android, that I believe is simpler, has this and iOS doesn’t?

Or is it just that they want to sell more devices…? Can’t believe this…

Multiple users is only available if you are a school/business that leverages other systems. More information here: Shared iPad overview - Apple Support

Multiple users cannot be set up with just the iPad.

The ability to have multiple user accounts on iOS devices has never been a thing. I doubt that Apple is going to change how this works 13 years later.

You can add your name to what I would imagine is a long list. Offer feedback.

In my point of view constant improvement should be something you should ever consider.

If there is something that I can get better in or be more efficient, then why ignoring this?

Might be necessary to have feedback from more users to consider how many users would appreciate such a feature.

If I were Apple, I’d do a survey to discover what most users want and how to raise their satisfaction more and more.

With this you keep clients and even possibly enlarge your user group.

Might be possible as well, that there are users that don’t buy Apple products, because for them it would be fundamental to have such a feature…

If you want to use a device for personal as well as business usage, such a feature would be very helpful as well.

If I work I do not only like to have a focus… I prefer to not even see on what could get my attention when it should not… but I let them decide on what way they want to continue walking…

Listening to customers might be a smart way… ;)
