You cannot inhibit all access to iPad settings - but you can configure ScreenTime Restrictions that lock various elements of iPad settings or functionality.


The iPad User Guide is a rich source of information about ScreenTime and other functions. Here are some dir4ct links to some relevant sections of the Guide:


Set up Screen Time for yourself on iPad - Apple Support

Set up Screen Time for a family member on iPad - Apple Support
