Detect Safari browser close with the iPad 3

Detect browser close with the iPad 3

We have a web site being used on the iPad 3 through Safari.

Our web site is used in a public setting and multiple users login to use it at different times. We have a questions about user account security.


When a signed in user clicks the home button on the iPad , which minimize Safari and returns them to the home screen, can the user be signed out of our web site? We don’t want someone else to come and open the Safari browser and have access to the previous user's account information. Is there a client-side event that is triggered that we can handle so we can log the user out of the site?

Is the iPad shared by everyone at this public setting?


There is currently no way to handle different users on the iPad (or any iOS device).

They are designed as single user devices.


If your company is eligible for an Enterprise account, then you could write an app that could handle clearing user credentials but not in the current "normal" environment.
