Cannot get whitelist to work.

This app is so confusing you go in circles. Two different logins & still cannot get a simple whitelist entry to work.

Safe

This is an app that keeps kids on safe thing ‘s I love it ❤️Highly recommend thank u kid safe browser 😊👍

Wont load any pages, filter is worthless

I paid for the lifetime filter after testing it out for a few days but now the browser on my kid’s phones won’t load any pages. If you attempt to type in any address it just resets the address bar. Pages won’t load. Bookmarks won’t load. So I guess it’s safe- you won’t be able to view ANY websites.

Easiest loopholes

All you have to do is go to Google.com or another one of many browsers, then you can search whatever you want. I’m also pretty sure it’s been abandoned by the developers. Don’t trust your kid with this one.

Response from developer

Hi, Sincere apologies We have a VPN solution for this to support all browsers. Please contact us at support@kiddoware.com and we will assist you. Thanks

Useful App

It is a very useful app with no ads or pop ups.

This app does not work and needs to be updated or removed

You can get to google in first search and google images are not filtered.

Response from developer

Hi, We have updated the app to have a kids friendly search engine instead of google. Can you please give it a try and let us know if you have any questions at support@kiddoware.com Thanks

Due for an update

Great app while it was working. Since recent iOS updates it now crashes upon opening on one of my devices. Can’t use it at all on that device. Such a pity.

Should rated 17+

To all parents: this app needs work.

Nice effort, however two major issues. First, it doesn't block google search for any adult images, which means it might as well be rated 17+ and second is that there hasn't been an update since 2014 for this app, which means they may have left this product fall by the wayside.

This could be a great app if they fix the image search or change the 4+ rating to a 17+

Good settings, but uses Safire engine

Got this app when I forgot my parental password and my son wants Safire back, but when I unblocked google, it says "access restricted" then I realize this app uses the Safire engine, I would want a different engine because my son's laptop is slow and heavy, and he would like a web browser so I can carry something less heavy.

Upgrade doesn't work for iPad Mini 1.

For the record, it never blocks ads. Dolphin Ad Blocker is the only web browsing app that blocks ads, especially ads with full frontal nudity on some websites. Why can't this do the same? All web browsers for kids need ad blocks like Dolphin. If you have iPad Mini 1, the upgrade is a waste of money.

Not secure enough for kids

Not a secure search engine for kids. It does not stop adult content from YouTube. Just found my 7yo watching a whale shark be slaughtered and a guy drop f-bombs. I would suggest blocking youtube within your app

An excelent app!

I just love this app, it is the best browser filter for kids. I recommend this app to all the parents that want their kids safe.

Doesn't Work

To test it out before installing it on the iPod my children share, I went to YouTube within the app and performed a search that clearly had mature content in it.

Safe and secure

Very easy to set up and keep kids safe.
