No, only when you temporarily lock the app using Guided Access.

Welcome, Sonia. I'll add that in, Vanessa, thanks for the tip.😉

Maybe you all don't have "Triple-Click" set to Guided Access?

Miss Apple (author) 8 months ago

You need to scroll down quite far in the accessibility app, maybe that's why you can't find it.

Vanessa S. 8 months ago

You'll probably have to download the IOS 6. I have the iPhone 4S and downloaded update and I have it now.
