That is just an assumption.. earlier it was said that the update will be available in even the L520 by the mid June or the last week of June, but its still in testing phase in most of the countries..

Yes!! its my assumption....
8-10 days back for all phones it was in testing phase but 5-6 six days back when I checked it was available for 625 & 925.[India]

I've mentioned the "625/925 users got Cyan update in india", so as to the owners of these can answer your question .

No you cant.
Only way is to lock the phone, to prevent others from peeking into your mails/messages.

Activate Kids corner and put a pin on your main account. Only people with pin can access your main account and the rest can only see what you choose to share under kids corner.

Actually the kids corner in WP has a drawback.
If u put a password lock on your main account and activate kids corner (KC), KC will also ask for the password (same password for both the accounts).
Only if you type the password, then the KW's contents will be revealed.

What's the use of password lock, then!

What? Are you on WP8 or WP8.1?

Yesterday, I set up Kid's Corner on my cousin's HTC WP 8S running WP8, It didn't ask for any password when swiping from the lockscreen to KC. Only swiping up asked the password.

Will check it with my 520 running on WP8.1 and report back.

Re: The Windows Phone Thread

That seems to be a problem in WP8.1 and not WP8

Am on WP8.1 dev preview with the latest update (not update 1). I guess, it may be rectified in WP8.1. @Shah What you found?
Update:

An update named 'update1' is available for people running dev preview.

As I had posted, It doesn't ask for password for Kid's Corner in WP8 but WP8.1 does so. My L520 is also on Dev Preview
