What is Guided Access?

The Guided Access feature on iOS allows you to limit the iOS device to one app and allows you to control which features are available. When used with Fiesta, you can do the following:

  • Prevent guests from leaving the Fiesta iOS App
  • Set a time limit for how long the iOS device can be used
  • Automatically re-open Fiesta after a crash

Guided Access is best used along with an Event Passcode, which prevents guests from exiting an event within Fiesta.
