Read full description

Lockteens Browser is a Chromium browser, with Self / Parental control filtering. Use it to avoid distractions on the internet. What makes Lockteens Browser special ? - It's impossible to bypass. Most of the Parental control apps in iOS are very easy to bypass. for example: to bypass a VPN filter, you just go to the iOS settings app and disable the VPN... But a browser like the Lockteens Browser, have it's own internal logic, which is impossible to control from the iOS Settings app. - The best Whitelist Filter in the world. This app was designed to be an all stop shop for every Whitelist filtering feature you can think about. - The same popular browser. You will get the same browser experience you get with the other popular browser. but this time - safer with a filter. What does Lockteens include ? - - Parental control. Easy-Peasy, done. - - Self lock, in case you don't have a parent or a friend to manage you. - - AI parent ! (AI GPT-3.5) - - An interactive web UI that contains the whitelist links as draggable items. How does it work ? 1. install the app in iOS. 2. go to our website. 3. use our website to control your iOS app. Notes: - You can see our Terms of Use (EULA) at this link: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ - I warmly recommend you to use Apple's Screen time, to block yourself from installing new apps. otherwise Lockteens Browser won't be as effective.
