Porn blocker
The porn blocker that tells your partner when you turn it off.
Blockd blocks adult sites in every app and browser on your iPhone and Mac. If protection turns off, the partner you chose knows within seconds. That one fact changes the 2 a.m. decision.

How it works
01
Turn on the adult filter
One switch blocks adult sites across Safari, Chrome, private tabs, and the browsers inside other apps. Turn on safe search too.
02
Invite your partner
Send a 6-character code to someone you trust. They see your protection status, your blocklist, and every change you make.
03
Get through the hard moments
If you turn Blockd off, your partner gets an alert within seconds. A person who will know is a different kind of reason to wait.
Why a wall alone doesn't work
Most porn blockers are walls that you build yourself. You know the passcode, you know the setting, and late at night you know the way around it. The block holds until the moment you need it most.
Blockd starts from a different idea. You can turn it off. Nothing stops you. But your partner gets an alert within seconds, and your streak resets. The friction is social, not technical, and that is the part that holds.
Blocks that cover the whole device
Blockd filters at the DNS level, the step where your device looks up a website's address. Because every app does that step, the block applies everywhere: Safari, Chrome, private windows, and the links that open inside social apps.
- The adult content filter blocks adult sites in every app and browser.
- Safe search keeps explicit results out of Google, Bing, and YouTube.
- You can add any other site. Subdomains are blocked too.
- More than 80 services, such as dating and social apps, block with one tap.
What your partner sees, and what they don't
Your partner sees your protection status, your blocklist, every change to it, and your streak. They get an alert if protection turns off, and another if your device goes quiet after you delete the app.
Your partner doesn't see your browsing history. Blockd doesn't take screenshots, read your messages, or track your location. The goal is a friend in your corner, not a camera over your shoulder.
Straight answers
What Blockd can’t do
- Blockd blocks by website address. It can't see what is on a page, and it never takes screenshots.
- Anyone can turn off a blocker that they installed. Blockd doesn't stop you. It tells your partner within seconds.
- An iPhone runs one VPN at a time. If you connect another VPN app, it can replace Blockd's connection.
- A few apps use their own DNS and can get around DNS filtering.
Common questions
Can I turn Blockd off?
Yes. Blockd never locks you out of your own phone. If you turn protection off, your partner gets an alert within seconds and your streak resets.
Does it block porn in Chrome and private tabs?
Yes. Blockd works at the DNS level, so it applies to every browser and every app on the device, including private tabs and the browsers inside other apps.
What happens if I delete the app?
Your partner gets an alert within minutes, when your device stops checking in. Deleting the app is the loudest way to turn protection off, not a quiet one.
Is Blockd free?
Blockd is free to download, and the free plan includes 3 active blocks. Blockd Pro costs $7.99 a month or $39.99 a year and adds unlimited blocks, schedules, and daily limits.
