Guest mode / restriction on iOS

[Jana_CZ]

Is there an app that could allow emulating something like a "guest account"?

Or, any chance / rumours this would be included natively in a future iOS update?

Use case: I want to be able to hand off my iOS device and allow another person e.g. to view photos in one folder (without them being able to go to another folder or another app), to browse and use the HBO app (but no other apps) etc.

I tried to get around by using the Screen Time limits, but that's rather cumbersome and takes quite a lot of time to set up - to the point when it's not really usable.

Currently, other than jailbreaking, there is no way to do this.

The rumor is that a 'guest' mode may come, but who knows.

Thanks... it would be great.

I tried to search a bit more and realized than there actually IS a multi-user iPad, though for education only... I totally need this for home use! And I don't even need that many users - a master user & a guest would be just fine
