An absolute game changer for digital boundaries and focus

If you are looking to take back control of your screen time, eliminate unwanted visual triggers, or maintain strict online accountability, the Purity Safe Browser is the most effective tool available. Unlike standard browsers that leave you exposed to endless algorithmic distractions, Purity is engineered from the ground up to foster a clean, intentional browsing environment. The automated filtering system catches inappropriate and distracting material reliably while allowing you to customize your own keyword and domain blacklists. Additionally, the unique option to limit or completely block images and videos helps break the cycle of overstimulation and promotes deep, text-focused reading. It also locks down competing browsers to ensure your safeguards cannot be easily bypassed, while built-in alerts let you share activity logs seamlessly with an accountability partner. Enforced SafeSearch and native tracker blocking keep your data entirely private without sacrificing performance. Overall, Purity delivers true peace of mind and genuine digital discipline, making it highly recommended for anyone wanting a cleaner, safer internet experience.

Support Reaponse

We got this app for my son. After getting a new device we had to log back in. My son forgot the password, so we requested to reset password…doesn’t email the link to reset password. We reached out via the email listed for support. Him last week and me today, still no response.

Girls Pov.

Hello, im not quite sure how to feel about this app. When i was 15 wanting my bf to get help with his addiction this app was ok. I didnt like how you were able to see the images and sites i really wish it was free but thats never possible. Youre not going to see anything change in a 3 day trial, it took about 3-4 years for you to be able to “retrust” your partner but if youre a girl looking for apps for your boyfriend just leave him alone. If he wanted to change at all he would’ve done it himself. Im already 17 and i went absolutely crazy, dont go crazy, hurt yourself or him because of his pathetic addiction just like how i did. I feel stupid for even waiting but what can i do. Its not possible to get clean without paying for something like this although they should make free apps to help world wide. Thank you i guess:(💔

Blocks Almost Every Browser

This is garbage! I am 13 and a half. My mom got this and it did really well stopping my urges, but the new update jacked it up. Blocks google! Even my mom has no idea as to why it did that! Can it at least still work with google but not block it? This is poor trash, don’t waste your time.

HORRIBLE DO NOT USE

You have to pay for the app and it doesn't work at all. Almost everything is blocked and it's impossible to get work done. Do not set up this browser it's so annoying. There has to be a better one out there. I want a refund but they make you jump through hoops to get it.

Super Helpful

I find my self still struggling but I just started using the app, ever since I started using purity I have become more self aware and more resistant to sin. This is a great app I highly recommend it all porn sites are blocked you can’t go on them. Thank you developers for this amazing app!

4 Stars, Could Be 5 With Some Small Fixes

This app is great except for some small issues. The Purity team automatically chooses keywords for you to block (rather than you being able to fully customize it yourself).
The problem is that these keywords do not genuinely block any pornography (from my experience) but just random websites (and this gets especially frustrating when you need to access an important website without your accountability partner nearby).

Worse than this, when you message their support team about this they are demeaning and they have treated me like controlling parents (I am an adult male).

Apart from this the service is helpful.

Isn’t fully functional

After the new update, it allows you to turn off safe search whatever you want. Waste of money, only works to block websites not images.

So far so good

Installed this on my husband's phone. Seems to be working. It's not perfect, but the admin team is always quick to respond and help out with any issues. It's also very affordable.

Great for Stopping the Urge

This app does what it says. I’ve used apps like covenant eyes, but there was always a work around. This app does what I need it to, and the added accountability feature is great.

Really good app but difficult to use

The only issue is it seems like every other website gets blocked because of the website word recognition system. Overall it makes browsing feel a little slowrr and It’s frustrating if I have to make transactions or work on business related items. Regardless, less Internet is probably for the best anyways.

Good but could use a tweak.

Does what I need it to do but I have a suggestion. Lower the age of the app from 17+ to 12 or lower. I can’t update my apps if I disable the AppStore and if I set an age restriction on downloading apps I can’t have purity because it’s 17+. If that gets changed then I’ll give this 5 stars.

Great app

This app is very helpful and it’s made me more focused, but I would love to have the age rating lowered to 16 cause I’m trying to block other apps by lowering the age limit but the app is great really blocks it all

Good App

This app helps for you wanting to goon by blocking any websites, that makes you goon

It’s saved me so many times

Wildcard and key-word blocklisting is a game changer. It adds another key layer that prevents the thrill of searching for content, as well as the actual blocking of website URL’s. Additionally, the feature to block images on browser (password protected) makes me feel so safe. It’s excellent value for money.

True Freedom

I have been fighting my urges for 3/4 of life and constantly failing. Upon trying out Purity, I’ve never felt so free in my life before. Absolutely recommend this app for those who want to regain control of their lives again! May almighty God bless you!

It works!

I’ve used others and really only wanted simple porn blocking but had to pay for additional features that, while good, I really didn’t want. I use support in community (SA or Samson Society) and literature that meets my needs. I didn’t find the other app based helps really did it for me. This works and isn’t near as expensive as other “premium “ apps.

Good, but…

I like the idea, I really do, but there are just so many other ways to fail like in app browsing.

Helped a lot

This is helping me so much

can be great

it does what it’s supposed to do but idk why my psychiatrist appointment link for some reason violates it’s keyword system.
