Guided access on Apple iPad 2 CDMA
How to pin the screen on an Apple iPad 2 CDMA?
There are times when you need someone else to use your Apple iPad 2 CDMA either to see a photo, a video, use an application or visit a web page, but you do not want them to be able to access the rest of the applications and data on your device either by privacy, security or to avoid mistakes.
For example, there are times when you need to give the Apple iPad 2 CDMA to a friend, family member or even a small child and you do not want them to leave that app that you have opened. This is very useful, for example, so that young children can watch videos on YouTube without leaving the application and you can even prevent them from doing anything other than watching, that is, blocking the touch panel until you want.
Imagine that you want to let someone see a photo or video from Instagram but you don't want them to be able to “like” that publication or see the rest of the publications and “gossip”, since it is possible to do so on your iPad 2 CDMA it is already incorporated in the Apple operating system for a long time, follow the steps below and we will tell you how to configure it.
