2 users and 1 iPad

[t0m3k]

Is there an app that will allow me to setup the iPad 4 for 2 users, I would like to have 2 users with their own apps, bookmarks and settings.

I don't have an iPad yet.

No, the iPad is intended to be a single-user machine, and cannot be set up in the way you require.

If this is important to you, you may wish to consider a MacBook Air.

What about a Jailbreak option, would that work? There seems to be a way to get multi-user support through it.

Best bet there would be to ask in the Hacking section. If there is a way, I never heard of it, but I'm not a jail breaker.

There is a Cydia app called iUsers that supports multiple profiles.

It works great on the iPad. It supports the iPhone and iPod touch too.

Here's an in depth article that discusses the app.

Also, if your on 6.1.3, jailbreaking won't be an option. 6.1.2 and below, your good to go.

OK, thanks.

You can setup rules in house about what each person can and can not do on the ipad.
For instance if one person used safari and the other person used dolphin then there is no problem of getting in the way of internet browsing.
And if you look at AppleAppStore lately, there are a lot of apps that do very similar things.
But another ipad 4 in the house means you have twice the goodness of ipad.
