HomeFront Security vs Peeryn

HomeFront is a health monitor for your iPhone. It checks your device configuration, monitors your network exposure, and scores your security posture — all without sending a byte of your data anywhere. SECURITY SCORE — REAL ASSESSMENT, NOT THEATER HomeFront checks what actually matters: Is your passcode set? Is Find My enabled? Is your iOS version current? Are app permissions reasonable? Each check is weighted by severity. Your score reflects reality — not a fake number designed to scare you into upgrading. DNS CONTENT FILTERING — ON-DEVICE PROTECTION HomeFront filters DNS queries on your device using Apple's Network Extension framework. Known problematic domains are blocked before they load. No traffic leaves your device — the filter runs locally at 127.0.0.1. This is not a VPN. Your browsing stays private. The reference database is sourced from open community intelligence feeds and updates automatically. BREACH AWARENESS Check if your passwords or email addresses have appeared in known data breaches. Password checking uses the Have I Been Pwned k-anonymity protocol — only a partial hash prefix is sent, never your actual password. The same privacy-preserving approach used by 1Password and Firefox Monitor. SAFARI WEB SHIELD A native Safari content blocker that filters ads, trackers, and known problematic URLs. Uses Apple's Content Blocker API — the extension cannot access your browsing history or page content. PRIVACY AUDIT See which apps have access to your camera, microphone, location, contacts, and photos. HomeFront flags permissions that look excessive and explains why they matter. PHISHING CHECK Learn to spot fake emails and suspicious messages. Report them directly from the app. WHAT WE DON'T DO We don't show fake alerts. We don't bundle a VPN you didn't ask for. We don't phone home with telemetry. We don't require an account. We don't slow your device down. Everything runs locally. Your data stays on your iPhone. BUILT FOR EVERYONE HomeFront is fully accessible with VoiceOver. Every score, every status indicator, every action has a descriptive label. Screen reader users get the same experience — security score announced as "87 out of 100, grade B," check results read as passed or action needed, and every button describes what it does before you tap it. No accessibility afterthought. Built in from the start. BUILT BY AN INDEPENDENT DEVELOPER HomeFront is built by one person who got tired of tools that collect more data than they protect. No venture capital. No growth metrics. No dark patterns. Just a tool that does what it says.

Choose which city you come out of, and decide what your devices can reach. PICK A CITY Come out in Tampa, Detroit, New Jersey, Las Vegas, Helsinki or Jeddah. Switch whenever you like, as often as you like. Adding a city takes one tap. BLOCK WHAT YOU CHOOSE Turn off ads and trackers, adult sites, malware and scams, gambling, or social media. Add any site by name. Changes take effect straight away, with nothing to reinstall. FOCUS: MAKE IT STICK For staying away from porn, gambling or endless scrolling. Tightening is instant; loosening waits 24 hours and can be cancelled, so a weak moment can't undo your decision. With a day count, a small social media allowance you open when you choose, and an "I need a moment" button for when an urge hits. BUILT FOR A HOUSEHOLD Give one phone different rules from another. Turn on safe search so results stay clean. Set quiet hours for school nights, and pause everything when someone needs a break. SEE THAT IT IS WORKING Each device shows whether it is connected and how much has been blocked. You see the count, not a list of what anyone visited. YOUR KEY IS MADE ON YOUR DEVICE The key that identifies this phone is created here and never sent to us, so we could not hand it to anyone else. ONE ACCOUNT, EVERY DEVICE Sign in with a passkey and Face ID, or a link in your email. No password to remember. The same account works on the web. Peeryn is a subscription that starts with a free trial for new subscribers. Choose how many devices you want to cover and change or cancel it whenever you like.
