Guided Access on the iPad

October 24, 2012 by Stacy Menz

I don’t know how many of you let your kids use your iPad and then find that they have navigated to something completely different than the app you set them up with, well it happens to us at work all the time.  In fact, they manage to navigate through the iPad in a way I still have yet to figure out!  Well the new iOS6 has something called guided access which will stop this from happening.

Apparently you just have to follow these steps: settings > accessibility > guided access

Now let your kids enjoy the apps without wondering what they are getting into!

PS – Just for full disclosure, I have not tried this feature yet as I have not updated my software but my coworkers have tried it and think its great!

What Clients Are Saying

“Our experience with Stacy and the team at Starfish Therapies has been fantastic. The group is incredibly passionate, very professional, and know how to make therapy fun for a child! Our daughter looks forward to her session — whether it’s in-person or via the convenient tele-health option. The intake process is comprehensive and involves collaborative goal-setting with quantifiable measures and milestones. In addition, we get a list of activities we can work on at home, which has become part of our daily routine! We’ve seen big gains in our daughter’s movements, balance and confidence. Thank you, Starfish Therapies!”
