I appreciated the article on how to disable private browsing and, on the surface, the “Content Restrictions – Limit Adult Websites” method does eliminate one access point to private browsing. However, there is a very easy work around where my child can still get onto private browsing on the ipad. Nobody online is talking about this and it was not addressed in your article. I already took all the steps you presented and it does in fact restrict access to Private Browsing via the Bookmarks Sidebar Icon and Tabs route. But, if I go to the upper right corner of an open Safari page and I hold down on the Tabs icon, a drop down menu appears with 6 different options: New Tab, New Window, New Private Window, Merge All Windows, Move to Tab Group, and Close this Tab. The 3rd option (New Private Window) opens exactly that: a new private browsing window separate from all the other Tabs in Safari and is completely unhindered by the “content restrictions – limit adult websites” method. This workaround completely eliminates the all the work I just did to set up a private-browsing-disabled experience. The iPad Pro M2 is running ios17.3.1, which is the latest version as of 2/27/24, so it’s not a software issue. Please help. I want to make Safari a safe environment for whoever picks up the ipad. I can send you screenshots if you would like. Please reach out to my email provided as the requirment for leaving a comment.
