To ensure that your experiments run smoothly and without unwanted interruptions, we recommend making the following changes in the Settings app of your iOS device:

- Do Not Disturb

- Control Center

- Display & Brightness

- Home Screen & Dock → Multitasking

- Accessibility → Guided Access

- Enable “Guided Access”

- Siri & Search

- iTunes & App Store

## Guided Access

After launching MWorks, you may want to [enable Guided Access](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202612). This will prevent the experimental subject from closing the app or accessing the lock screen or Control Center from within it.
