## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not a fan and then was charged after cancelling trial

*2024-12-19*

Something shady with this app. Installed it and did the 3 day trial for the monthly subscription. Not a fan of the app so uninstalled and cancelled the trial after less than an hour of signing up. A few hours later got an email that I’d been charged for the yearly plan without my authorization.

### 5/5 — It works!

*2024-11-04*

I am using this app to block unwanted URLs on my son’s iPhone. This is the first one that actually works without hair-pining the traffic through a 3rd party proxy server or VPN gateway. I love the fact that all of the filtering is done locally. I believe this will reduce our family’s T-Mobile data usage as well.

### 5/5 — Simple and Effective

*2024-10-20*

Very good at keeping unwanted and harmful content out of kids hands!

Also super easy to configure!

### 5/5 — Simple and flexible

*2024-10-16*

I was looking for an easy to use app to control what my son can access on his iPhone. This app covers it all. I love the simplicity and flexibility to restrict any app or web site.

### 5/5 — Just: YES!

*2024-10-16*

Why has nobody made this app already? This is one of those ideas that should’ve been brought to fruition decades ago. I am already using this app across all of my family’s phones, and it is providing a convenient and effective form of parental control that I have yet to find in any other piece of software.
