How to block access to adult websites on iOS

As with Android, safety first and foremost, and if you have children on iOS and raise the stakes for greater safety of our children is vital. Not only direct controls but also setting up smartphones and tablets to prevent access to “hot” sites can help us.

Here is that preventing to visit adult porn websites is very important to protect your children and today we will see how to prevent access to these sites on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets with iOS operating system and I report part of the written guide time to block access even on Windows.

How to block adult porn websites on iOS

To block browsing on adult websites we can proceed in different ways but on iOS, unlike Android, everything is much more closed and the protections are unfortunately easily circumvented by a child awake.

Here’s how to do it.

Block site access for Adults on iOS

There are basically two ways to block access to adult sites on iOS, Safari or general settings. Here is the step by step guide.

Block iOS adult sites: Safari

You can block access to adult websites on Safari by going:

Settings
General
Restrictions
Click on Enable restrictions
Enter the security code to open the restrictions
Now that if in the correct section you can select the various Apps to limit the use between which there is Safari and all the others

In doing so we hid the app from the Home making it impossible to navigate. The easiest solution is to not make the app accessible to browse.

Block iOS adult sites: All Content

Instead to block only adult content on iOS you can go to:

Settings
General
Websites Restrictions
And finally select one of the options
- All websites (Block all)
- Limit adult content (Block adult sites only)
- Only specific websites (we insert specific websites to block)

So doing so we will always have Safari in the Home but still access to adult websites will also be blocked on iOS.

Block websites for adults from the home router

The other method is to act directly on the home router and set the DNS to block the adult sites (DNS that you find at the bottom of the page) or enter the exclusions by hand.

To access the home router, usually from your browser on the digital PC the web address 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.0, 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.254 or look for the online procedure to access your router based on the operator telephony or router model.

Once you have logged in to your router you can enter the DNS, the same for Windows that you find at the bottom of the article, or enter the exclusions by hand for each website.

Obviously the guide will work only if you are at home.

And on Windows how do I do it? Here’s how to block adult porn websites on Windows

Here it is a little simpler and on Windows it is sufficient to change the default DNS with the secure ones of OpenDNS. To do this, follow the instructions below:

Access the connection settings by clicking on the Properties button.

Now, scroll through the list. The connection uses the following elements and selects, by double clicking on it, the entry Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4).

In the window that will open, put the check mark next to the Use the following DNS server addresses, type the addresses of the following primary and secondary DNS servers in the Preferred DNS server and Alternate DNS servers fields:
