Mine’s been sitting in a drawer for months. What do you all use yours for? Trying to find a second life for it.

    Like others here, I use mine as a sort of “kiosk” for smart home stuff by using Guided Access to lock it to a single app. If you have a Mac you could also put it into real single-app mode via Apple Configurator policies, but it’s more time-consuming to set up and if the app stops working there’s no way to fix it short of restarting the entire iPad (whereas you can end Guided Access, restart the app, and start Guided Access again).

      Huh if I ever get around to it I will look up guided access to lock it to my HA kiosk. Hell I will forget by the time I hit submit I need to stretch my legs and see about it now.
