Q: Lock the screen?

I hipe someone can help.

 

I just bought an iPad mini for my daughter and will set it up with all the learning tools I want her to use on the main fist screen.

 

Does anyone know if I can stop her scrolling to other screens with the regaulr icons on it?

 

Any help would be appreciated, thansk.

    You could look into guided access and see if that will help

    That seems to only keep you in the app thats chosen. I love it for corporate applications in that you can lock a user to only be able to use your one corporate application that you were given the ipad to use for and not be able to download a load of crap to.

     

    WHat I want to do is create a home screen with a bunch of apps for my daughters and then move the other Apple apps to another screen that they cannot access.

     

    This would help me out a lot, but thanks for taking the time to send me the link.
