Guided Access – Getting Started

An intro to Guided Access

Part of the DM Guide to Using iPads for Music

Guided Access is essential when using iPads as instruments. It makes it easier for the music leader to keep a session on track, by limiting the functions available.

A key element is that it stops the ‘home’ button from closing apps and prevents other, non-relevant, apps from being opened.

To turn on ‘Guided Access’

  1. Go to Settings
  2. Scroll to Accessibility and click into the menu
  3. Scroll to Guided Access and switch on

And that is how to get started with Guided Access on iPads.
