David, Thx for the rapid reply! I believe I'll be adding [1Password for Windows to my PC].



I am wondering - do you know of an app that allows me to have passwords on some of the apps on my iphone while allowing me open access to others? For example, I would like to make and answer calls w/o a password but require a password to access email etc.



Regards,



Don M

  • Nothing that comes to mind, Don.



    Perhaps someone else will have an idea, though, so I'm splitting this off into a new topic in the iOS forum.

    It is not possible to password protect individual apps in iOS unless the apps are designed to do so. [url="https://agilebits.com/downloads/1Password/Pro"]1Password Pro[/url] is one such app, and there are likely others for different tasks (like private browsing apps). However, since iOS security is much tighter than OS X or Windows, there is no way for a third-party app to "hook into" the OS and add password protection to other apps. Each app is sandboxed and cannot interact directly with any other app.
