Tumblr safe mode & How to Disable it

Tumblr Safe Mode is a feature designed to hide content that falls outside the rules of the community, but it can block access to pages with adult content. However, you can use the platform without profiles and posts being automatically filtered. If you are over 18, you can unlock the feature to access posts and profiles that display posts dedicated to adults.

By default, safe mode is enabled for all Tumblr users, regardless of the person’s age. Therefore, just follow the steps below where we show you how to turn off the safe mode on the iPhone and iPad ( iOS ), the PC and Android devices.
