Why Screen Time alone doesn’t hold

Apple’s adult filter is decent. The trouble is you set the passcode, so you know it. And a weak moment is exactly when you’ll use it.

01

A family filter for every app.

An encrypted DNS filter blocks adult sites in every app and browser, and forces SafeSearch and YouTube Restricted Mode.

02

Apple’s adult filter, on top.

It runs on the phone itself, so it still works with a VPN on. It also turns off private browsing in Safari.

03

Quiet pauses at your hard hours.

The apps you pick pause a little before your hard hours and come back after. No reason given, nothing to argue with.

04

A passcode you don’t know.

VisionShield makes your Screen Time passcode and shows it once. Seeing it again takes a day.

Three strengths. Going up is instant.

Relaxed

Blocks adult sites everywhere, all the time.

Balanced

Also tightens around your hard hours, quietly.

Strict

Tightens earlier and longer, and apps can’t be deleted.

Coming down a level takes a day, like everything else that weakens protection.

Turning off the DNS filter, or a VPNApple’s filter still holds in every browser. The live check notices and Today says so.
Private browsingTurned off in Safari by Apple’s adult filter.
Deleting the appBlocked on Strict. Lowering from Strict takes a day.
Changing the clock to dodge a pauseWith pauses on, date and time must be set automatically.
Reddit, X and YouTubeSafeSearch and Restricted Mode are forced. Strict also blocks Reddit’s image and video hosts.
Lowering protectionWaits 24 hours and can be cancelled until then. Your ally, if you have one, hears about it when you ask.

Questions

Does it work in Chrome and other iPhone browsers?

Yes. Apple’s adult website filter runs inside the web engine every iPhone browser uses, so it applies in Safari, Chrome, Firefox and the browsers inside other apps. The DNS filter covers every app on the phone.

Do I need a computer to set it up?

No. Everything is set up on the phone in a few minutes. Supervised mode, which needs a Mac and Apple Configurator, is not required.

Can I delete the app to get around it?

On Strict, apps can’t be deleted. Lowering from Strict takes a day like every other change that weakens protection. On Balanced the app can be deleted, which takes its protection with it. If you have an ally, they’ll see it stopped checking in.

Does a VPN get around it?

A VPN switches off the DNS layer while it’s on, and the live check notices. Apple’s adult filter still holds, because it runs on the phone, not on the network. The family filter also blocks many VPN and proxy sites.

What if I forget the Screen Time passcode?

You can ask the app to show it again. Like every weakening change, that takes a day. If you gave iOS your Apple Account for passcode recovery, Apple’s “Forgot passcode” also works with that password.
