For Android
https://truple.io/androidfilter.html (Free android filter)

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

Thanks I get that.
My problem is that my computer is sometimes not auto locking after a few minutes and if I forget to log out and my son comes by he could log in to the router page, have the password staring him in the face and ....
why wouldn't it auto lock?
set it to lock after 1 or 2 min if no activity.

I'm not looking for a filter, I'm looking for a program that restricts web access based on windows user and based on Time of day, any ideas?

Yes, in the past, on my s8. After calling them, they temporarily shut off the filter and it worked.

Dear GenTech User
This communication, though coming Purim time, is no laughing matter. As a Gentech customer, you know the dangers that current technology presents to our lives and future generations, and by using our filtering solutions and protections on your devices, you play a big role in the mission to minimize the risks inherent in current technology.

You, our user, want excellent filtering, using the most advanced technology, supported by top quality customer service, and customizable to your individual needs. GenTech has already proven that it can provide a unique, customizable product for all platforms and all communities around the world with a high level of support. Our primary goal is to continue to enhance the product and service, based more on its benefit to the user, than its cost. Our objective is to ensure a GenTech user feels cared for, well-serviced and privileged to own a GenTech filtered device. We have always tried to give our customers the best possible product and the best possible support.

GenTech is continually concerned about the future and advancing its products for newer technology – to provide filtering responses to increased automation, live streaming, social media, entertainment and the concurrent security challenges. Necessary investments in these areas are extremely costly but worthy, and are in fact required for our lives and future. We don’t want the cost to limit potential additional advancements and protection - things that are necessary and are requested and desired by our users. It’s self understood that cost will affect options at our disposal and thus their quality.

Thus, the point of this communication: We’ve held off as long as we could, but at this point – where cost prevents necessary quality – we must address cost. We can no longer afford to provide low cost filtering while continually advancing the quality of product or support.

To continue staying current with the challenges of the fast-moving and changing technology world, we must increase our pricing minimally so that our users continue to get what we know is necessary and what they need and want. At the same time we will add some reduced pricing options.

New Standard Filter price for all devices $38.97 per Quarter (effective on your next license renewal).
10% discount when paid annually.
15% discount for accounts with 3 or 4 devices.
20% discount for accounts with 5 devices or more.
New option of a Monthly License for $12.99
For Android devices: $84.99 per year for Apps-only mode.
Free: Block All Data on all platforms (available thru TAG)
50% discount for computers and Apple devices - for "Email Only".
You may request a refund of your charge within the first 30 days of your license renewal, if you no longer want the service. Please review our refund policy online @ gentechsolution.com
Thank You for using GenTech, and a Frielichen Purim!
