Setting up and Using Guided Access
Guided Access® helps the user stay focused on a task by dedicating the iPad to a single app and allowing
you to control which app features are available. Use Guided Access to: Temporarily restrict the iPad to a
particular app; disable areas of the screen that do not apply to a task, or areas in which an accidental
gesture might be distracting; limit how long the user can use an app; or disable iPad device buttons.
