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

It has incognito, but I think stuff get logged somewhere anyway. Either way its filtered.

( I use that for AP as added security... ;) )

Probably because it can be uninstalled someway... But I dont want to know that...

For me the having to ask wife reinstal it for me, remember her password, email etc. is such a pain, it is enough of a deterrent  :D

does it lock the app store or you have to do that manually?

You can set it to lock the app store or just specific apps etc. It has a dashboard with plenty of settings.
By default it locks your settings on the phone. This somehow prevents uninstalling. You can change this, or download a quick settings app to replace the phones settings.

You can download a free trial and see how it works..

As a filter, its good.  As a browser, not too great.

What's the problems as a browser?
If it's not the browser is it effective?

Not at all.  The K9 for iOS is an app.  A browser.

very bad browser! most of the time when clicking on a link it will not open, you have to copy and paste the link every time, very annoying. and even for regular pages to load, you may need to refresh 3-4 times
