Security for iPads at the pool?

[QuiltLover]

We plan to spend some time at the pool at Beach Club in September and would like to keep our iPads secure while in the pool. Any recommendations for a lockable device that would fit 2 iPad Airs and 2 iPhones? Am thinking of something that could attach to a beach chair.

Look at http://www.kyssbags.com/ I have one I use for cruises. The bags have locks.

I don't think Disney allows you to lock anything to a chair or any object of theirs.

I just would not bring the ipad. Too much could go wrong.

I agree that it is not a great idea to bring iPads to the pool area. This is a sprawling area with a lot of people and children, most of whom are wet and dripping. I bring a paperback when I am at any pool and plan to leave my chair.

A couple of years ago a man on here posted a GREAT story about how his iphone (I think) got stolen while at the WL and he quickly did find my phone and got security involved. There was a boat chase to MK and a man was caught and arrested. The man and his wife (who was in her bathing suit wrapped in a towel) had to spend time in MK being interviewed. I would NEVER ever bring an ipad to a pool unless I intended to keep it in my hands at all times.

meh. just bring a pool bag and wrap it in a towel.

I have faith and trust in humanity that not everyone is evil.

I don't think everyone is evil. I just think that over complicating SAB time isn't worth it. I'd rather enjoy a book or magazine.

And when they found the guy he had something like 5+ other iPhones in his backpack....

You are correct, not everyone is evil. It just takes one bad person and they are around Disney every day. That being said, I wouldn't try to lock anything to the pool furniture.

I agree with PPs. Why not lock them in the safe in your room?

I'd use the lockers at Stormalong Bay. We don't bring our electronics to the pool but if we did we'd lock them in the lockers before going into the pool or someone would always stay at the chairs.

Not just that, but even if folks do not intend to harm an electronic device, it could easily happen. Between the sun and kids who are dripping winding their way between chairs, I would be stressed.

Leave the electronics in the room and enjoy the pool
