Thread: App to protect apps?

Hi, I am new here, sorry for not posting it to "introduction" bit, but from my experience I know not many people look in there.

Simple question: is there any application in app store which protects another applications against deleting? I have 3 years old son, and my iPod is his favourite toy, there's loads of kids games and apps on it and I want him to keep using it, but he manages to remove something nearly every day. It's not too big problem, but I can never remember what was there and it's really annoying if he removes something (usually mine) what needs setting up (like fb or mail apps) or if he deletes game I had saved some progress.

I remeber there was some app for that, I did google it a while ago, but then I couldn't find it in app store. I was searching for anything for a while yesterday, typing in things like "protect", "no delete", "password", but it doesn't seem to find anything like that.

So does anybody know about app which works in background and you need to enter password if you want to delete application? I would be very grateful.

Has anyone seen an app that would let me protect my apps from deletion? I would like something that when someone tries to delete, before getting the silly "rating" bit, it would prompt for my password. Seems pretty darned simple to me.

A way to protect them is by putting a password. I know LockDown can help you on that. Try to search it in Google or in the app store.

yes there is but you need to jailbreak your ipod and the app is called iProtect you can protect them with password so if someone tries to delete he will need password and also password for opening the app
