How to block haram content on your phone and computer
No single setting blocks everything. What works is a few layers, each covering what the others miss.
1. Use a browser that filters by default
A filtering browser blocks sites, filters searches and blurs images without setup. In AkhiBrowser, adult, alcohol, drugs, vaping and gambling sites are blocked from the first page.
2. Force SafeSearch
SafeSearch hides explicit results in search engines. You can turn it on in each search engine's settings, but it's easy to turn off again, and it's per browser. A filtering browser can force it: AkhiBrowser does so on Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo and Yahoo, and turns on YouTube's Restricted Mode.
3. Add a family DNS
A family DNS service refuses to look up adult sites, for everything on that network or device. Cloudflare's 1.1.1.3 and CleanBrowsing are well-known options. It works by site name, so it can't see what's on an allowed site, and whoever runs it can see the names of the sites you visit.
4. Close the side doors
A browser filter doesn't cover other apps. On a child's device, use Google Family Link on Android or Microsoft Family Safety on Windows to control which apps and browsers can be installed. On AkhiBrowser, Family Premium can also lock the settings with a PIN and turn off private tabs.
5. Keep the conversation going
Filters miss things, and they don't work on a friend's phone. For children, knowing what to do when something appears on the screen matters more than any setting.
