It’s good practice to enable guided access on all of your e-Reception Book iPads. Guided access is an Apple feature that’s built in to every iPad. It limits your device to a single app and lets you control which app features are available.

To end Guided Access mode, triple-click the home button again, input your passcode, and tap End in the top left corner.
