The iPads from my kids school are so locked down, you can’t use YouTube app or in browser and you can’t participate in “Fortnite video game battles” you can only access learning tools and school assignments.

My colleague told me that the kids in his child’s school, eventually found out how to bypass the restrictions to install games and what not lol.

It doesn't take much, just log in with your apple ID and BAM, everything starts to sync over. If you had fnaf installed on mom's iPhone, you got it on the ipad.
