    @Rob-Kelley On Android there's an app called Touch Lock that overlays a lock button. Just tried it and it works with MRA. Maybe something similar for iPhone??

    I tend to agree it would be a useful feature in MRA tho, DMD2 has it.

    I've tried iOS Guided Access which kinda works but it's a bit fiddly to enable/disable by triple tapping the side button and it overlays a grey semi transparent box.

      @Rob-Kelley There’s a new feature on its way (now in test in beta). Just two little clicks to lock and only one click to unlock.

          It's already live in update 4.3.4 πŸ˜‰
          The button has been moved up in the menu or long press the menu button itself (while navigating) to lock the screen.

                When locked a padlock icon will appear on the screen, tap that to unlock.

                      Ok, just my 2 cents on this....
                      I would love to be able to lock the screen with menu (3 dots) and all the other buttons above it not taking room on the screen. Is that too much to ask for? Maybe a tripple tap or whatever other means are there. There is not that much room on the phone screen to begin with.

                      Positive emotions are worth every penny ;)

                          @Nick-Carthew You are correct, Nick! But it retains all those circles on the screen πŸ˜‰
