对于过度劳累的父母,你不能总是在身边保护你的孩子免受世界的邪恶。这包括他们可以通过移动设备在线查看和无法查看的内容。在手机上阻止某些网站的能力并不是 iPhone 独有的,但现在有这么多虔诚地使用它们的孩子,这可能是一个很好的起点。
通过使用iOS(Assert)提供的内置功能,对您的孩子可以访问的内容进行更多控制。成人内容过滤器将允许您屏蔽所有对您孩子的眼睛不安全的图像和弹出窗口,同时还允许您为您认为不安全的任何网站手动添加URL(URLs)。
无需返回并访问每个浏览器的设置,因为这些限制将适用于所有可用的浏览器,包括Safari、Chrome和Firefox。对于在数字时代出生的孩子精通技术的父母来说,这是个好消息,他们可能会试图绕过网站封锁。
继续阅读以了解如何在孩子的 iPhone 上屏蔽网站。
使用屏幕时间功能在 iPhone 上阻止网站(Block Websites On iPhone Using The Screen Time Feature)
我们将在这里看到的主要 iOS 功能是 Screen Time。此功能跟踪 iPhone 上的所有应用程序使用情况,您可以在其中为某些应用程序设置限制并阻止特定网站。
- 要开始,请启动“设置”(Settings)应用程序并点击“屏幕时间”(Screen Time)以访问选项。如果您是第一次这样做,您可能需要打开屏幕时间(Screen Time)。
- 它会询问 iPhone 是给你还是你的孩子,所以选择Child。
- 点击内容和隐私限制(Content & Privacy Restrictions)选项以调出不同服务的菜单。通过点击切换为绿色来启用该功能。
- 现在我们可以开始限制您孩子的在线内容。点击内容限制(Content Restrictions)并选择Web 内容(Web Content)。在这里,您可以在限制成人网站(Limit Adult Websites)或仅允许的网站(Allowed Websites Only)之间进行选择。
- 通过选择限制成人网站(Limit Adult Websites)选项,您将可以手动插入要阻止或允许的网站。The Allowed Websites Only提供了一系列儿童友好网站,例如Disney、Discovery Kids、HowStuffWorks等。
选择此选项时,所有其他网站都将被阻止,因此只有在您同意您的孩子查看这些网站时才添加其他网站,例如YouTube或Facebook 。
iOS 11 或更早版本(iOS 11 Or Earlier)
前面的说明适用于使用 iOS 12+ 的用户。对于使用早期版本 iOS 的任何人,屏幕时间(Screen Time)都不存在,因此您必须采取不同的步骤来实现类似的目标。
- 对于使用 iOS 11 的用户,您可以启动“设置”(Settings)并进入“常规(General)”选项卡。
- 从这里,通过两次提供您的 iPhone 密码导航到限制(Restrictions)和启用限制。(Enable Restrictions)
- 导航到允许的内容(Allowed Content)并点击网站(Websites)以访问设置。提供的菜单将允许您添加您希望阻止的任何指定URL(URLs) ,并提供与iOS 12 提供的相同的“限制成人内容(Limit Adult Content)”和“仅允许的网站”选项。(Allowed Websites Only)
家庭的屏幕时间(Screen Time For Family)
Screen Time家庭版适用于 iOS 12+ 用户,让您可以更轻松地在孩子的 iPhone 上设置家长控制。您可以为孩子的帐户添加所有现有的Apple ID(Apple IDs),这样您就可以直接在自己的设备上跟踪他们的所有浏览习惯和手机使用情况。您甚至可以使用您的设备为您的孩子创建一个帐户,并将其与他们的 iPhone 或 iPad 同步。
有了这个系统,您将不再需要为了对设备进行一些必要的更改或限制而将 iPhone 从您的孩子身边夺走。您可以远程阻止手机上的网站,完全没有压力。
该选项将要求您拥有一个家庭共享(Family Sharing)帐户,并且可以通过“屏幕时间”(Screen Time)功能进行设置。只需(Just)从“屏幕时间”(Screen Time)选项卡中选择“为家人设置屏幕时间”,(Set Up Screen Time for Family)然后按照屏幕上的提示输入现有帐户或新创建的帐户。
附加限制(Additional Restrictions)
屏幕时间(Time)不仅用于阻止特定网站。停机时间(Downtime)功能可用于建立电话时间表以及对电话和应用程序使用进行限制。
通过在手机上设置“停机时间”,在您设置的时间段内,用户只能使用通话和允许的应用程序。您甚至可以对允许的应用类型设置限制。
- 点击App Limits,选择Add Limit,然后选择您要限制的应用程序类别。
- 点击下一步(Next)并设置一个计时器,其中包含您认为需要控制孩子的 iPhone 权限所需的小时和分钟。您甚至可以选择自定义您希望限制生效的星期几。不再需要在学校之夜通宵玩手机游戏或在下班后通过WhatsApp和Messenger与朋友聊天。
- 一旦一切都设置为您喜欢的,只需点击添加(Add),您就可以开始了。
除了您添加的所有限制之外,另一层保护是使用屏幕时间(Time)密码。这将确保您的孩子将无法更改设置——只要他们永远不会找到密码,也就是说。
点击使用屏幕时间密码(Use Screen Time Passcode)选项并选择一个四位数的密码以供使用。每当您希望更改屏幕时间时(Time),您都需要使用此代码,因此请确保您能记住它。只是(Just)不要使用解锁手机所需的相同密码来打自己的脚。
How to Block Websites on an iPhone
For the overworked parent, you can’t always be around to protect your сhildren from the evils of the world. This includes what they can and cannot view online via mobile devices. The ability to block certaіn websiteѕ on a phonе is not exclusive to the iPhone, but with so many chіldren nowadays who use them religiouѕly, it can be a great place to start.
Assert more control over the content that your child has access to by using the built-in feature that iOS provides. The adult content filter will allow you to block out all images and pop-ups that are not safe for your child’s eyes, while also allowing you to manually add URLs for any sites you deem unsafe.
There’s no need to go back and access the settings for each browser as these restrictions will apply to all available browsers including Safari, Chrome, and Firefox. This is great news for parents with tech-savvy children born in the digital age who may try to circumvent the site block.
Keep reading to find out how you can block websites on your child’s iPhone.
Block Websites On iPhone Using The Screen Time Feature
The primary iOS feature we’ll be looking at here is Screen Time. This feature keeps track of all app usage on the iPhone and is where you can set restrictions for certain apps and block specific sites.
- To start things off, launch the Settings app and tap on Screen Time to access the options. The chances are that if you’re doing this for the first time, you’ll need to turn Screen Time on.
- It will ask if the iPhone is for you or your child, so select Child.
- Tap the Content & Privacy Restrictions option to pull up a menu of varying services. Enable the feature by tapping the toggle to green.
- Now we can begin placing restrictions on your child’s online content. Tap Content Restrictions and select Web Content. Here you can choose between Limit Adult Websites or Allowed Websites Only.
- By selecting the Limit Adult Websites option, you’ll be allowed to manually insert the sites that you want to block or allow. The Allowed Websites Only offers a list of child-friendly websites such as Disney, Discovery Kids, HowStuffWorks, etc.
All other sites will be blocked when choosing this option so add other sites like YouTube or Facebook only if you’re OK with your child viewing them.
iOS 11 Or Earlier
The previous instructions were meant for those using iOS 12+. For anyone using earlier versions of iOS, Screen Time doesn’t exist so you’ll have to take different steps to achieve a similar goal.
- For those of you using iOS 11, you can launch Settings and head into the General tab.
- From here, navigate to Restrictions and Enable Restrictions by providing your iPhone passcode twice.
- Navigate to Allowed Content and tap on Websites in order to access the settings. The menu provided will allow you to add any specified URLs you wish to block and offers the same options of Limit Adult Content and Allowed Websites Only that iOS 12 offers.
Screen Time For Family
The family version of Screen Time is for iOS 12+ users and makes it even easier to set parental controls on your child’s iPhone. You can add all existing Apple IDs for your kid’s accounts allowing you to keep track of all their browsing habits and phone usage right from your own device. You can even create an account for your child using your device and syncing it with their iPhone or iPad.
With this system, you’ll no longer have the need to wrestle an iPhone away from your child just to make a few necessary changes or restrictions to the device. You can block websites on the phone remotely and completely stress-free.
The option will require you to have a Family Sharing account and can be set up through the Screen Time feature. Just select Set Up Screen Time for Family from the Screen Time tab and follow the onscreen prompts for either an existing account or a newly created one.
Additional Restrictions
Screen Time isn’t only for blocking specific websites. The Downtime feature can be used to establish a phone schedule as well as place limitations on phone calls and app usage.
By placing a “downtime” on the phone, during the time period you set, only calls and allowed apps will be available to the user. You can even set a restriction on the type of apps allowed.
- Tap on App Limits, choose Add Limit, then select the category of app you’d like to restrict.
- Tap Next and set a timer with the desired hours and minutes you feel are necessary to rein in your child’s iPhone privileges. You even have the option to customize the days of the week you want the limitations to take effect. No more up all night playing mobile games on a school night or chatting with friends after-hours through WhatsApp and Messenger.
- Once everything is set up to your liking, just hit Add and you’re good to go.
Another layer of protection to throw on top of all the restrictions you’ve been adding is the use of a Screen Time passcode. This will ensure that your child will not be able to change the settings – as long as they never find out the passcode, that is.
Tap on the Use Screen Time Passcode option and select a four-digit code for use. You’ll need to use this code anytime you wish to make changes in Screen Time so be sure you can remember it. Just don’t shoot yourself in the foot by using the same passcode required to unlock the phone.
