Another way the parental controls feature can protect your children is by letting you choose what type of content (music, podcasts, movies, TV shows, and apps) you'll allow on your iPad. For example, you may not want your children to view any movies rated R or higher or listen to any music or podcasts rated Explicit. The following are some of the content you can filter:
In-App Purchases Blocks or allows installed apps to purchase additional content, such as a magazine app that charges a fee for new content.
Ratings For Defines which nation's ratings system to use, such as United States or Germany.
Music & Podcasts Blocks or allows music or podcasts labeled Explicit.
Movies Blocks all movies or just those under a certain rating such as R or NC-17.
TV Shows Blocks or allows TV shows under a certain rating such as TV-14 or TV-MA.
Apps Blocks or allows apps under a certain rating such as 9+ or 17+.
To define what's allowable on your iPad, follow these steps:
From the Home screen, tap Settings.
Tap General.
Tap Restrictions. An Enter Passcode screen appears.
Type your four-digit passcode. The Restrictions settings screen appears.
Under the Allowed Content category, tap a button to define what to block, such as tapping the On/Off switch to block or allow in-app purchases or to define the movie ratings allowed on your iPad such as PG-13 or R.
Press the Home button.
