I've looked around but am unsure what to use. I would prefer a cloud-based filter rather than just another browser (can easily bipass through chrome). I found one but it asked for admin status so I cannot uninstall, which I was not comfortable with. I mainly use chrome on my phone, so are there any android-based blockers for chrome browser? Thanks, Boh
To clarify, is this what you are referring to? https://support.opendns.com/hc/en-u...ndroid-Configuration-instructions-for-OpenDNS
Yes, you can also use it on the router like I'm doing it blocks pornography on all the devices thatare using the router
I use Boomerang with the Spin browser on android. Works great. My accountability partner has the password, and i can just text him if i need any settings changed and he can just do it from his phone asap
Never considered the accountability partner aspect. Great way so you're not permanently locked (traditionally anyway) out of parts of your phone. Do you mean boomerang parental controls? It said that includes a browser, so do you stack the two or?
They work together. SPIN is the browser that is built off Firefox they use. It blockes all the porn sites and other catagories you choose, such as dating sites, or file sharing sites bit turrents, etc. It will block all other browsers. Boomerange ap does a few other things. You set up all your settings on their webpage, such as blocking certain aps on your phone. I blocked the ap store itself, and set timers on my internet so it turns off at 10pm and i set instagram, youtube ap and facebook ap to turn off at 10pm. As at night when im tired im more likely to use porn-subs to MO.. Also you can set specific aps to and websites to be Always accessable. So in the Boomerange ap I set my own website, email, and nofap.com to be available 24/7 .. Because its made for parents to keep their kids safe, there is also a parents control panel ap i dont use that can moniter their kids cellphone. What I recomend is put both on your phone, goto the website and set up all your settings to test it out, then ask a buddy to change the password for you and keep it safe. I got lucky and i found a guy who has same issues and i have his password and he has mine. On my laptop I use SafeEyes blocker. It works same way. They also have safeeyes for android i used on my LG phone, but it didint work as well on my Samsung. Plus boomerang lets me put timers on aps, where safeeyes does not have that option.
Right on! You've got this process down, and I'll be sure to test all of it out in the very near-future.
I Think its Boomerang.. no e at end.. if you search boomerang blocker in the Play store it should come up.
Bro, its only $10 so worth it tp save your life! If you really dont have 10 just pawn some junk, or sell some clothes you dont use anymore.. but $10 is less than a movie or eating out a meal.
Ya, it's actually not the money. I currentlylive overseas and canceled my credit cards.(I got addicted to cam sites). SO I decided to delete my cards so I couldnt use those sites.
Spin its an excellent option, I just installed it and uninstalled Chrome. I tried to open a few porn sites and SPIN and it even tells you what kind of content it has
Some Antivirus programs have a parental control, and i found out that the one I'm using(Bitdefender) has one. It's been working so far. If you're subscribed to a Antivirus program, check to see if they have one in the Google play store. There may be a good free parental control app that you could set up for yourself. Other than that I'd say try to use Open Dns on your Wi-Fi connections.
