110 Haram Content Blocking Categories
The “Gambling” and “Pornography” categories are blocked by default and cannot be deactivated.
Other categories can be enabled by the user or administrator based on the context (child, teenager, adult, man, woman, sensitivity, etc.).
We encourage you to share your suggestions and ideas for adding new categories.
If you come across a website that is not yet included in our blacklist, please let us know so it can be added.
Similarly, if a website has been mistakenly placed on a blacklist and you believe it should be classified in the whitelist, feel free to inform us.
These content filtering and blocking features are compatible with Android, Mac, Windows, iPhone, as well as routers and Wi-Fi networks.
