Leave a Review Covenant Eyes
Updated review 9/9/24
As many have noted, this update unfortunately doesn’t do anything positive. The VPN makes almost every website unusable. I want to use safari or duck duck go… I hate using your clunky (and that’s saying something considering I want to use safari…) browser. Won’t even let me get to the homepage of Reddit or any of my really bad subs like r/telescopes. Also, this is an easy app to cheat. I won’t say how (in case other users haven’t figured it out, and better a millstone be tied around my neck, right?..), but you don’t even have to turn settings off to look at porn. Ridiculous app that costs a lot to turn your phone into a worthless piece of junk. Thankfully I’m not the one paying for it… but… I’m going to tell the guy that I am accountability partners with, we should look into other options.
Update: 9SEP24 - got an email today saying they updated for apple and how it’s good to go. I downloaded again, wholly willing to and hoping it will work. I can’t even get past the safari extension portion of set up. Went into settings, follow all prompts, and end up with a message saying oops! Something went wrong. If this app works for you, good deal, but again, this app that promises so much freedom, fails in its ability to actually do so.Show lessYezierska
Good but could be better
I’ve been using this CE on my laptop for at least two years or so and it’s great. Initially when I setup an account I wanted to use it on my phone as well. This is where the problem is, it can’t block everything. If I were to use twitter on my phone I can easily access explicit content when I have a lapse. Since my phone was what I struggle the most with since it has quick accessibility. I’ve been able to have a close a friend put a lock on my phone to block explicit content which is helpful but even that doesn’t block everything. If somehow you can develop a feature that blocks certain apps then this app would be great.
I also recall that the only way to use the app on the phone is to use their web browser which doesn’t help either because what about the other apps? If I didn’t have a lock on my phone to block content then this app would be really useless. It really works best on computers but the phone could use some more development and features.Show lessnayybndjd
Update
Please remove the “Safari Extension” button or locate somewhere else. This button covers the top portion of the webpage when using covenant eyes browser, not allowing use of most webpages menu or top page options. There are things you can do to get access to them, but it’s really just a nuisance for users like myself that don’t want to use Safari. I would also like to see a feature to manually select to hide the bottom bar (the bar with the back button, forward button, add webpage, etc.) because on some webpages it doesn’t go away and you can’t access buttons to complete actions. ie. Adding filters/sorting features on a web search. There is usually any update/continue/done button that is hidden under the bottom bar. Maybe add an “options” button next to the URL box to move/add these features into?
Other than missing some use customization as noted above. This app is perfect for anyone struggling with sexual addiction, wanting to overcome pornography, or even just some added protection for the family and children to have a glimpse into what they’re viewing, or to protect them from viewing things they shouldn’t be. Highly recommended for anyone that is seeking a “pure mind” specifically freedom over sobriety from sexually acting out. This is a great tool to add to your tool box of recovery.Show lessCjarmyguy
