Comments on Safe Surfer: Block Porn & Apps for Android

★★★★★ West Kelowna Forager · Sep 14, 2026
I've tried and reviewed many apps for protection against sexualized content, and this one is the best! It was cheaper than the rest, offered nudity detection, prevents the app from being Uninstalled, blocks inappropriate sites, prevents the user from getting around the protections, even blocks VPN'S, so there's no way around it! I use it for my spouse who is tech savy. I can block apps and browsers! He now ONLY has access to Spin Browser. It's turns safe search on all browsers, even YouTube.
★★★★☆ mouad ziani · Aug 26, 2026
First of all, thank you for fixing the Advanced Protection issue on Pixel devices. I really appreciate your work and the quick response to the problem. I have also discovered another potential security issue involving the Private DNS settings. When I search for “DNS” using the Settings app's search function, I can access the Private DNS settings directly. From there, I am able to change the Private DNS provider hostname (DNS URL), which appears to bypass the DNS protection.

★☆☆☆☆ Najee Bilal · Nov 29, 2025
The nudity detection feature sucks. It censors stuff that it isn't even porn. I can't open any app or read any posts without the app closing for no reason. Fix the nudity detection filter.
★☆☆☆☆ Ahmad Altaf Khabir · Feb 11, 2026
I've been using it since 6 months, but now it doesn't work and doesn't block anything at all!!!
★☆☆☆☆ Seto Kaiba · Dec 5, 2025
It has become useless because every time it keeps saying unable to connect to the internet why make something that works only with internet why not make it to work with and without internet this use to be better back then but now once it got new updates it's useless now
★★☆☆☆ Ashish Ranjan · Sep 14, 2025
It used to work seamlessly earlier but now I can't open any web page without first stopping this app. DNS filters every web page.
★☆☆☆☆ MrDrilla · Sep 28, 2025
Powerbank used daily for the battery drain, that's fine, but when it's gathering data off the protected device, it crashes the devices applications (Spotify, Clash Royale, banking app) and mobile data connection when doing so. Tried to work around it and set the app to only gather the info when the device is idle and charging, that didn't work because it still just gathered data every 30 seconds or so. Paid for the full version, over $12 a month. Going to uninstall and cancel subscription now.

Description by Safe Surfer Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Built to be simple to use, protecting your device with Safe Surfer is as easy as tapping the Get Protected button.

Safe Surfer is packed full of features to enable you and your family to surf the Internet without fear:

➤ Safer Surfing
Safe Surfer blocks a wide range of pornographic and adult websites. Once protection is enabled, these websites cannot load on your device.

➤ Eliminate Distractions
Sign in to enable blocking 50+ more popular apps and games.

➤ Remote Control (Pro)
Use the web dashboard to remotely block sites and view the device's browsing history.

➤ Mail Alerts (Pro)
Regularly send blocked sites and screen blackout events to an admin or accountability partner.

➤ Internet History (Pro)
View detailed browsing history stats on the device or remotely.

➤ Pin Protection
Built-in pin lock functionality ensures that only you or an accountability partner can configure protection and other settings inside the app.

➤ Prevent Uninstall
With a PIN code, prevent uninstalling or disabling the app without permission from the admin. Requires enabling the Accessibility Service using the checkbox under "enable always-on".

➤ Screen Blackout
Powered by machine learning, Screencast detection is a new way to deter the viewing of inappropriate content. When Screen blackout is enabled and triggered, a screenshot is taken and stored securely, along with the screen being temporarily blacked out.

➤ Wi-Fi and Cellular protection
Safe Surfer protection keeps your device protected—no matter what kind of network you are connected to.

➤ Zero ads and low resource footprint
Safe Surfer is ad-free and has a minimal impact on your device's resources.

Notes:

• As a monitoring app, Safe Surfer must be installed by the legal owner and/or custodian of this device solely for personal usage, monitoring a child for which you are a legal guardian, or monitoring employee usage on a device owned by an organization. Using Safe Surfer for other/malicious purposes is stricly prohibited. A persistent notification shows at all times when Safe Surfer is active.

• As a parental control app, we use the Android AccessibilityService API for the sole purpose of stopping device users from uninstalling protection without the permission of a parent (or an accountability partner).

• As a parental control app, we use the Android VPNService API to filter online content according to your settings. This VPN does not change your IP address/country on the internet, nor does it affect your internet speed.

• Some mobile service providers and Internet service providers in certain countries hijack the ability to use specific DNS settings. The Safe Surfer app relies upon this ability. If this is the case in your country with your service provider, the Safe Surfer app may not work properly on your device.
