Guided access screen mark

When I activate guided access in IOS my screen shows a big mark through it.

This mark is grey in colour and resembles a large cut but as soon as guided access is turned off this disappears.

Following these steps you can Enable properly guided access screen mark

Hello Reckonankit,

I already have guided access setup on my device.

The issue is as mentioned that when i triple click my home button to turn guided access on instantly the screen shows a big wide grey line in the middle of the screen. As soon as I turn off guided access it disappears.

It sounds like the screen mask where you disable parts of the screen. Are there four small dots (handels) you can use to control the size of the mark ? If so pusk all the dots together then tap them. I tried to get a screen shot but it wouldn't copy.

Below is the section from the User Guide that I think you need.

“Disable app controls and areas of the app screen:  Draw a circle or rectangle around any part of the screen you want to disable. Drag the mask into position or use the handles to adjust it’s size.”

This may be almost two years later but the same thing showed up on a work tablet. Who knows how it got set but this fixed it! Thank you and for the link to the help.

In order to remove the screen mark:

1. Triple click the home  button to enable/disable Guided Access.
2. At this point, you should see the shape on the screen, and there will be a small x on the mark. Tap the x to delete the mark.
3. Done.
   
   
   
   
   

We had the same issue which we've just resolved thanks to your post grantfromlisarow. Thank you!
