Effective Porn Blocker apps?

Discussion in 'Porn Addiction' started by Deleted Account, Jun 4, 2020.

  1. Hey guys,

    Are there any 'EFFECTIVE' porn blocker apps? I recently informed a friend of mine of my addiction, and he is willing to help. We formed a plan to meet up this weekend and install a porn blocker software on my devices to ensure i don't P anymore. I don't know of any good blockers.

    I specifically would like a software that requires a code/password, since my friend would be making the password for me. Furthermore i would like a software that will not allow me to delete the app unless the password is provided.

    The devices i use to access porn include my android phone and macbook laptop

    Any suggestions? ps i am willing to pay money for the app. After all, what's a few bucks compared to a lifetime of anguish, am i right?

    Cheers :)

  3. I use spin browser for android and it works great. Unfortunately it doesn't have locking mechanism. But it's better than no tool at all.

    I like pluckeye the best for a computer/laptop. You wouldn't need a password for that if you learn how to use it correctly.

    I'm not exactly sure what you want to block on your android? Do you want to block just what is categorized as pornographic websites? Or do you want to block all artificial sexual stimulation? There actually might potentially be a way to block all artificial sexual stimulation on an android phone.

    If you download the cleanbrowsing android app, and then you can use the clean browsing family dns. This will block all porn websites and it will even force safe search on youtube and it can't be turned off unless you change the dns. I'm sure there is an applocker that can't be uninstalled without the password for the applocker. What you could do is lock the cleanbrowsing app in there, along with every other app you can access artificial sexual stimulation on. So the play store, all the social media apps, all apps you have a problem with ext, and even possibly the google chrome app. You could download the spin browser from the play store before you do this and use this as your web browser instead of google chrome. The spin browser has all porn automatically blocked on it. So you wouldn't be able to go on google images on the browser and still see porn images for instance, like you would be able to on the google chrome app if you had all porn blocked. I'm not sure if the spin browser also blocks social media sites. But if it does then with this method you could potentially have 95% of artificial sexual stimulation blocked on your android phone. If you ever needed to download anything new you would need to take it to your friend so you could access the play store.

  6. You also have SiteBlock extension. But the best I found was to set a Host file in your system that is filled with all sites to be blocked, you can find up to date host files on Github that have all malicious sites. as well as setting ClearBrowsingDNS

    its just your brain.
    you do not need an app to control the feeling. Even if you use an app and make a lock with unknown password, when you get the urge you'll make the world flip to watch the porn. so why bother protecting it with password, just put something in brain that you dont have to do it so I wont do it.

    I am facing another problem.
    That is, after work when I reach home, I just spent my whole time on my mobile.. insta, facebook, whatsapp, youtube etc etc etc..
    long time I searched for phone with no internet, no apps , just a basic phone and thought of switching to it. But yesterday only I realized that why I am doing that. I will just turnoff the data in this phone and it is as good as the basic phone. And now I have turned off the data and I have no intent of starting it till next week.

    Its all like.. you love sweets. and you are running a sweet shop. and its famous and you earning like anything from it
    Now what would you do
    1) close the shop and start some other business
    OR
    2) control yourself bec you know the harmful effects of taking sugar and lead a happy life.

    Both options are feasible and good
    but the first does not guarantee that even after closing the shop you are not going to eat sugar.

    your choice.
    :)

    Totally agree with this. I've found it to be by far the best for me as you can adjust the mode for the level of access you want. For me the extreme mode is perfect because it also blocks reddit and the reddit app which were big triggers for me. Can't recommend enough
