I'm afraid that there is no way to lock a folder full of apps on the iPad or any iOS device. iOS devices were conceived as single user devices and there are no provisions for multiple accounts or lockable folders.

No app would be able to do this as it would violate the app sandboxing rules enforced by Apple.

Thank You

You're welcome.

There is a provision for the educational market to have multiple users for each iPad but the feature isn't yet available for the consumer market.

It lets schools use iPads with multiple user accounts so they don't have to be set up for each student every time. They can have more students than iPads and use them as if there were one for each student.

I think it's for elementary school students.
