Here is a step-by-step guide to setup parental control restrictions on the iPhone or iPod Touch with iOS 4.x. If you are an iPad user, follow the knol on How To Setup Parental Controls on iPad (OS 3.2 Edition). If you prefer video, catch the video tutorial on YouTube instead.

PLEASE NOTE: Setting parental controls merely prevents the DOWNLOADING/ PURCHASING of age-inappropriate material (e.g., sexually explicit or violent videos) for children. After setting these restrictions, every child with an ipod Touch can STILL browse EVERYTHING on iTunes and in the App store and easily click on any film or video, and the detailed descriptions of them, along with suggestive images.

General Parental Control Restrictions Setup
  • From the home screen, select Settings > General.
  • Select Restrictions
  • Enter a 4-digit passcode. Make sure you remember this passcode, in case you need to change these settings later on.
  • You will see the restrictions screen. Set Safari, YouTube, and Installing Apps to OFF on this screen.
  • Scroll down the screen to the Allowed Content area.
  • Set In-App Purchases to OFF.
  • Select Music & Podcasts. Set Explicit to OFF.
  • Select Movies. Select the rating you would like to allow.
  • Select TV Shows. Select the rating you would like to allow.
  • Select Apps. Select age-based filtering for apps you would like to allow.
  • Select Ratings For to change your location if necessary.
  • Hit the Home button to return the home screen.

For parental controls that offer more protection for your child, visit the Apps store. If you decide to make a purchase of parental control software, please keep in mind that the purchase will likely sinc to the account it is purchased from, so it may need to be purchased from the child's account.
