new guided access bug: disabled areas disappear upon re-entry
With the new IOS, there is a bug using guided access with my daughter's ipad mini, which we use in landscape mode. Guided access can be turned on a first time. However, if you exit guided access and then re-enter it, the disabled areas on the screen disappear. This obviously defeats the purpose of guided access. In order to get the disabled areas back, you have to exit guided access once AGAIN, and either re-create or move around the disabled areas you created, then hit resume. However, they will disappear again the next time you exit and re-enter.
This may not sound like that big a deal as there is a workaround, but it's very problematic for us as my daughter uses her ipad to speak and necessitates very frequent changes to her speech app throughout the day, with many different teachers/therapists, too many with too little time to work around this bug all day long. when the areas on the screen are not disabled, my daughter can too easily delete and do real damage to the hundreds of buttons carefully programmed on that app.
