I was wondering if there was a way to passcode lock certain apps? Like safari and youtube. We got our 3 and 4 yr old girls iPads but there is some things I dont want them on
Thanks

If you enable restrictions on the device, you can lock out certain apps. Yes.

Go to Settings, General, Restrictions -- and enable them.

I figured it out right after I posted this, Thanks

Yes, but I need to lock downloaded apps, not stock apps. How?

You can still do this, kind of, with restrictions. In the same restrictions area of Settings, under allowed content, there is a setting for Apps. In there you can set the restriction to 4+, 9+, 12+, 17+, or all apps. I believe developers have to enter a rating (or Apple does it for them) when they submit an app to the store.

This method isn't perfect as you can't pinpoint a single app or two but you can keep young eyes from seeing things you don't want them to.

Not sure how to lock certain apps. Sorry I just wanted to block safari, youtube, app store, itunes stuff like that. Dont need to worry about certain apps if there is something I dont want them to open I dont download it

Restrictions work the best but don't let them watch you go into settings my 4 year did and managed to put a passcode lock on the phone and couldn't remember what it was .. I has to do a restore lol I now have settings icon in a folder lol

absolutely ridiculous that you can't do this, why are parental controls not a standard option??

They are a standard option.
