I take my iPad into work situations where I don't want others browsing my photos and social media info. I've placed all the apps I want off limits into folders. Now I need an app to password protect them. which app is best for this task?

Thank you in advance for your advice.
 
I sure wish there was Exces for iPad.

Unless there's a need for other people to use some of your apps, you could simply use a lock code and turn the iPad off when you aren't using it yourself, so nobody else can get into your stuff.

Just put a password on your iPad. If you don't want anyone to get into your stuff then all you can do on a stock iPad is password protect it. Otherwise it would require jailbreaking to lock specific folders.
