Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.0.6

I don't see any option for configuring the Guest network when running the Deco M4 in Access Point mode.  I've seen references to this functionality on other Deco models.   The only options on the Wi-Fi Settings screen in the app is "Main Nework" and "Share" ??

The Deco M4 does not have a guest option while the Deco is running in AP mode. You will need to switch the Deco back to router mode.

Firmware was released back in July of 2019 that added that feature in the US region, if you are not seeing that you need to contact your local TP-Link Support team for an update.

@Tony My M4s is running firmware version 1.1.0 Build 20190620 Rel. 45372. I have guest network option in the AP mode but the guest network is NOT isolated from the main network. Devices on guest network can access shares on the main network. Event this option is available but it is meaningless.
How can I get the guest network isolated from the main network?

That will only work in router mode. In AP Mode it does not control any routing.
