Monitoring iPad internet use, what do you guys do?

[Mimi-]

Evening. Can I pick your brains please on iPad interment use monitoring. Our iPads are numbered and we write down which number each child takes but I'm struggling to monitor their internet use. When children use the computers they log in and with our internet provider (RM safety net) I can see all web sites seen and who saw them. How can I do this for iPads? We've had some interesting searches recently and it's frustrating not being able to say which child. RM mentioned there could be a way that involved lots of configuration changes and it meant they had to write a user name and password each time their used the iPad. Is there and easier way? What do you guys do at your schools. We use jamf school MDM if that helps. Thank you

We use RM so interested in this thread. I believe if you use iPads 4+ that support iPad classroom where the child logs on it will monitor their history, (we still using iPad 2)

I heard (not got around to doing yet) but @netsupport have a browser you need to use that logs key words typed in their browser only. Not sure on licensing

You could use Securly to monitor web access and lot's of other areas on the iPad

Lightspeed can help you filter your iPads onsite and offsite. Feel free to send me a PM me if you would like to discuss the specifics or this page might be helpful to give you a bit more info.

 

Thanks!

You could reserve IP Addresses for each IPad. If you track who is using which IPad by number or whatever, you can tie the two together? I don't know if Safetynet would show you a report based on IP Address/URL Visited. But on-premise firewall/filter would do. Alternatively, as suggested you can purchase a small number of endpoint filtering agents for specific devices?
