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

do you have conflicting antivirus software?
IE. McAfee, (or avast if not set to exclude k9)

I don't think so. I only have AVG.

Just monitors, sends out weekly emails of 'suspicious' activity to up to 10 people.
Claims to works with all browsers.
Iv'e been using it for about a month without any crashes etc. and doesn't seem to use much battery.
Can't be sure how well its working until I actually go on a inappropriate site, which I don't plan on..

As of today, what is considered to be the most 'technically advanced' filter for a desktop (as in not slowing down speed or crashing)?

I'm not interested to hear or know which filters are the easiest or harder to bypass or uninstall, I just wanna know which filter will cause the least technical problems possible.

Thanks in advance for any advice and tizkoo l'mitzvohs.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

Its pretty expensive though. No?

Nope, it's free the limitation is that you need a separate account for each device, which means that your accountability partner will get separate email for each device... not such a big deal. I use WebChaver for my mac and x3watch for my android...might just switch my mac to x3watch as well since its free.
