Setup Kiosk Mode & Lock Your iPad Didital Songbook to wtkJams/KE

Here you go. This is for all those KJ's out there that are using iPads for Digital Songbooks and Server access to KJAMS Pro / KJams2.

Step 1 Enable “Guided Access” in your iOS settings

Open “Settings”
Go to “General” > “Accessibility”
Tap on “Guided Access” (Scroll down the page a little, it’s under the “Learning” section)
Flip the switch to “ON”
Tap on “Set Passcode” (this will prevent users from leaving “Guided Access” mode)
Enter a passcode

Step 2 Launch wtkJams/KE

Step 3 Configure Guided Access

With your app still open, triple-click the Home button. You have now entered the “Guided Access” setup screen. There are 3 main options to choose from here: Hardware Buttons, Touch, and Time Limit.

Hardware Buttons - Turn off Sleep/Wake, Motion & Volume (Leave on only keyboard)
Touch - Leave this ON
Time Limit - Leave off unless you want to limit the time for each singer to share Digital Songbook. (10 Minutes)

Step 4 Start Guided Access

After you've configured Guided Access as desired, tap on the “Start” button in the upper right. Your app is now running in Guided Access or “kiosk” mode! If you try tapping on the Home button, Sleep/Wake button, or Volume buttons, you’ll see they have no effect.

The Home and Sleep/Wake buttons will show a small message on the screen letting you know that Guided Access is enabled. You can exit Guided Access by triple-clicking the Home button once again, and entering your passcode (if configured). You’ll be taken back to the Guided Access setup screen, where you can either End or Resume Guided Access.

Step 5 Repeat each step for each iPad.

On your next show, simply Launch wtkJams/KE and "Tripple Click" Home button.

You're all set! Enjoy.
