    Anyone know how to lock/hide apps on an ipad?

    I let me nephew play some games on my ipad every once in a while (he's 3) and am having some trouble... So he doesn't really understand the difference between games I'll let him play and personal games that I won't let a 3 year old play yet (not anything bad) Anyone know a way I can lock these apps that I don't want him to play, or maybe hide it in a password protected folder somehow? It' not the end of the world if I can't do it, but would definitely be nice so some of my games don't get their progress reset or anything XD

    Try searching app protector on the appstore, I have one for android that allows settings such that I can password protect some apps

    You can hide a folder inside a folder, its easy enough to do
    What's my definition of success?
    Creating something no one else can
    Being brave enough to dream big
    Grindin' when you're told to just quit
    Giving more when you got nothin' left
