how to password protected my mail app on my iPhone 6s Plus
hi guys i like to know if it is possible to lock my email app in iPhones.
my phone is always taken by my family to be used (ie playing games on it). but i have the mail app which configured to my gmail and it worries me that other friend-family member might see my confidential email if they click on my mail app. so this is why i asked if there is a way to password protected the mail app in case they click on it the mail app will pop up a password first.
is this possible or not?
thanks

An alternate solution to locking out of mail is to restrict the guest user to a single app using Guided Access.
General > Accessibility > Guided Access
It's often suggested you use a triple click shortcut on the home button to activate/deactivate the restricted mode.

Apple iOS is a single user OS.
