For iPhone/iPad/iOs
Check out their quite easy and powerful content restrictions.
Suggestion: Have someone else have the password (or half and half with a spouse) and do the following:
Lock installing apps + remove browser + add apps you need (possible rules: no games, no sports, no entertainment, etc.).
[Occasionally an app will have a built in browser/or need to access a certain website - just go back in to settings (with password) and add that website].
There is time restrictions and more features too.
(May not be enough for teenagers - consult your own advisers - this solution sure beats doing nothing and there is no excuse)

Pricing info may not be accurate and is only on full filters (not email only), feel free to correct, and does not include installation costs. I am working on a comprehensive comparison list
here it is

Nothing's perfect but I have Livigent (I think it's called GenTech now). Seems to do the job.
Anything free?
Even if it doesn't do a great job blocking, it's for the point of having one.
I'm not who you think I am.

K9 is free.
If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

He wants:
Looking for a free (or very cheap) filter for a moto g4.
(To blacklist websites on all browsers, block bad apps...)
And K9 on a phone (which, BTW, isn't available as of now on the Play Store) does not do any of these.

Thanks!

Looking for a filter for windows 10 that allows shopping through portals. And I know portals discussion isn't allowed, but I hope this doesn't count

Anyone using netspark with Android 7.0 (nougat)?
I have the play store enabled via custom filter but all of a sudden a few days ago I can no longer download and update apps. I get a 491 error.
When I disable netspark it works fine so the issue is definitely with netspark

Saw the same issue with a friend that updated his S7 to Nought. TAG told him that NetSpark has problems with this update.

According to Tag and Netspark their newest version isn't available on the play store. You need to download it directly from the website.

A new filter (if it can be called so..) for kids is out from Google, Google named it Google family link, it's available on the play store, the kids phone most run Android version 7 , while the parents device can run KitKat+.
You have to be invited to be able to use/test it, you can register https://families.google.com/familylink-earlyaccess

I just got accepted, (and thankfully I didn't downgraded from Android 7) but didn't had a chance to try it.

You can download the app here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.kids.familylink
