How to block porn or inappropriate websites on kid's phone is the number 1 concern that parents have regarding their children and cellphones. As smartphones are getting more popular, teenagers (and even adults) are getting easy access to the Internet. And once they have access to the Internet, they are open to all sorts of things — good, bad, and even porn.
Here, we are going to talk about two easy ways to block porn, adult, inappropriate websites on your iPhone, iPad and Android Phones or Tablets.
