How to Set Parental Controls for the iPhone App Store: 14 Steps

Does your child have his/her own iPhone? Do you not want him/her accessing the iPhone AppStore? If so, this article will help you in setting up controls for them to be disabled so they can't access the App Store.
STEPS

1

TURN ON AND UNLOCK YOUR IPHONE.

2

PRESS THE HOME BUTTON, WHICH CAN BE FOUND ON THE BOTTOM OF THE DEVICE. This may either exit your program, or, if you are already on the home-screens area, may take you to the default installed-apps Home screen.
If the second, press the Home button once again.

3

TAP THE "SETTINGS" APP ICON.

4

TAP THE "GENERAL" BUTTON SETTING.

5

SCROLL THE LIST DOWN JUST A LITTLE BIT. You'll eventually see the "Restrictions" tab come waltzing up the screen into view.

6

TAP THE "RESTRICTIONS" SETTING BUTTON.

7

TAP THE "ENABLE RESTRICTIONS" BUTTON.

8

SET UP A PIN, OR, IF YOU ALREADY HAVE ONE INSTALLED ON YOUR DEVICE (TO LATER ACCESS AND DISABLE THE CONTROLS), TYPE YOUR PASSCODE INTO THE DEVICE TO ENTER THESE SETTINGS.

9

LOCATE THE FEATURE YOU\'D LIKE TO DISABLE ON THE IPHONE. As far as the App Store goes, there are 2 main settings you can disable. The installation of apps and the deletion of apps.

10

LOCATE THE SWIPE BAR TO THE RIGHT OF THE SETTING YOU\'D LIKE TO DISABLE.

11

SWIPE YOUR FINGER TO THE LEFT ON THE SWIPE BAR THAT CORRESPONDS TO THE FEATURE YOU\'D LIKE TO DISABLE.

12

SCROLL DOWN THE LIST. You'll see another setting come up. It's called just "Apps" underneath "Allowed Content". Tap this setting.

13

TAP THE "DON\'T ALLOW APPS" SETTING, IF YOU DON\'T WANT APPS TO BE DISPLAYED AT ALL ON YOUR IPHONE\'S SCREEN.

14

TAP THE "RESTRICTIONS" BACK BUTTON TO SAVE YOUR NEW RESTRICTION SETTINGS.

TIPS
You can also restrict access to using Safari, the separated YouTube app, the Camera, Facetime, iTunes (and Ping), along with changes to location (as you move from place-to-place in the open world) and any Apple Accounts you may have in your iPhone. You can even also change the ratings to songs, podcasts, and movies, and a whole lot of other stuff you can mess around with!
THINGS YOU\'LL NEED
iOS device (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad)
Settings app (default, preinstalled, undeletable app)
a parent who is ready to set up these controls (you'll need to create a PIN that you don't want the kids to know about)
kids out of eyesight view
