- The children/users can only see the photos and videos that you decide and they can´t mess up your photo library! - They can see photos and videos on your iPhone/iPad without being able to delete and mess up the library or destroy any apps! The guardian controls everything! As a guardian, you start the app the first time and choose which albums the user should be allowed to see, e.g. all, or the albums the person should be allowed to see. The child/user will then see all the albums that you have selected for them and they can see both photos and videos from these albums, e.g. 'Road trip to Sweden 2024', 'Per's 6th birthday' etc. They can zoom the pictures ad swipe to the previous/next, BUT ... destroying something is completely impossible! As a parent, you can now lock the iPhone/iPad to only SafeViewer and then the child/user cannot open any other apps! As I told you, it is impossible to destroy anything, neither in the Photo Albums nor in other apps! Lock your iPhone/iPad to SafeViewer! An explanation of how the parent can lock the iPhone/iPad to only one app (SafeViewer) is explained in the Guardian menu. Let the children enjoy your photos and videos!
