Keeping them in Mupi
Guided Access is built into every iPhone. It holds the phone in one app until you unlock it.
Turn it on once
- Open Settings, then Accessibility.
- Scroll to Guided Access and turn it on.
- Open Passcode Settings and set a Guided Access passcode. Use one your child does not know. Face ID or Touch ID can end a session too.
Every time you hand the camera over
- Open Mupi.
- Press the side button three times quickly.
- Tap Start.
To stop
Press the side button three times again and enter your passcode, or use Face ID or Touch ID.
Worth knowing
- Guided Access is Apple's, not Mupi's. Mupi cannot start or stop it for you.
- It has to be started again after the phone restarts, which is the main reason families with a permanently repurposed phone prefer a dedicated camera.
