Latest reviews of Browser for Kids – Parental control safe browser with internet website filter app for iPhone and iPad
Great update, best app browser for parental control ;)
I love this app! I only wish Apple would have built their "in app" browser to do the same thing this does. That way people couldnt get around the parental lock on safari. This app is great for a guy pursuing purity! I only gave the app four stars because it only works in landscape mode and you cant enable full screen view. Add those features and it is five stars.
It can be a bit time consuming to build the list of sites you approve your children to go to but it was worth it. The only issue I have occurs if the child friendly site has subpages that drops the key extension word that I have approved. Other than that - perfect. I used the restrictions area of the settings on the ipod and disabled in app purchases, safari, access to the itunes store, etc etc. Then dragged this app button to where safari use to be on the lower main line apps. This is now the only browsing available on my childs ipod.
Not what I was looking for and had to pay .99 to try it so I wouldnt have to rate the lite version 5stars. Corrupt way to do business. Wont download anything else from this vendor.
This is a white list browser with password protection. So i can enter the websites i want my children to access and thats all they can get to. Great browser for protecting children and adults too!
