For Android

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

Thanks! Done and setup!
If it gives you problems (I had some), check out "Screentime".

Did a bit of searching... trying to figure out how to block the stock browser on a galaxy s5 ... its fine if the play store is open to download another browser... main thing is looking for more than a typical app lock ...

People coming to TAG would not be just blocking the stock browser

I installed WebChaver today. They use Covenant Eyes. It seems like it's slowing me down. Is this normal? Can it be due to not ironing out the issues with my firewall (Kaspersky)? Anything I can do?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

It slows you down.  So does Kaspersky.  Enjoy :)

Does it make sense that it's slowing me down much more than K9? Do all anti-viruses slow down equally? Is there one you recommend?

Yes. No. I've been happy with Avast (only File Shield enabled), as well as Nod32 (only file and hips enabled, disabled antiphishing and web protection.)

Here's what I don't understand. Why don't livigent netspark etc.  just set up a website that is a kind of portal or proxy allowing access to all approved websites through their website. Then you would have the ability to whitelist their website on your iphone etc. and restrict all other websites. wouldn't that solve many of the issues such as battery life etc. that users have when installing these filters directly onto their phones? I'm not very tech savvy so maybe there is something I'm missing here...
