<p>Does your library have an iPad that patrons never see? Here’s a tip
that makes it much easier to make it available: lock the iPad so that
users can’t leave the app you choose. </p>
<p>It’s a featured called <strong>Guided Access</strong> and it’s
available in the Settings under Accessibility. Once you’ve switched it
on and set a 4-digit passcode, you launch an app like you usually would.
Then triple-click the Home button to bring up the Guided Access
settings. Here’s Apple’s guide, which includes a few more details: <a
href="http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5509">http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5509</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Sarah Tozier</strong>, from Preble County Library, shared
this and other iPad tips at yesterday’s STEM Summer Reading Program. She
connected an iPad to a digital projector and demonstrated <a
href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/the-human-body-by-tinybop/id682046579?mt=8&at=10l4Dq">The
Human Body by Tinybop</a>, along several other apps. The Human Body is
an illustrated, animated guide to the human body that’s both
kid-friendly and highly detailed–no small feat!</p>
<p>In my house, the <a
href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/toca-boca-ab/id419103351?at=10l4Dq">Toca
Boca</a> apps are a big hit with our toddler. In <a
href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/toca-kitchen/id476553281?mt=8&at=10l4Dq">Toca
Kitchen</a> you’re a short-order cook for four animated characters.
Each has their favorite foods and other dishes they won’t touch unless
you cook it the way they like. It’s fun open play you can join in with a
child.</p>
<p>In <a
href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/toca-tailor/id556430416?mt=8&at=10l4Dq">Toca
Tailor</a>, four different characters are ready for your fashion
wisdom. Design clothes for them, dress and accessorize them and see if
they like your style. </p>
<p>Each of these apps costs $2.99, which is very little when it comes
to a software purchase. But if you’d like to know when they’re on sale,
sign up for an account at <a href="http://www.appshopper.com">AppShopper.com</a>.
There, you can mark apps you’d like to buy and be notified when they go
on sale. It’s easy to try out new apps when they’re free!</p>
