Many online services offer parental controls to block adult content, but they’re not nearly as effective as they seem. With so much inappropriate material online, parents want to protect their kids—but the built-in controls on platforms and devices like YouTube, Spotify, Netflix, Amazon Fire, and iPhone, to name a few, have serious flaws.

These controls are often hard to set up, easy to bypass, and don’t always block everything they should. They can also be glitchy, sometimes randomly stopping without warning. Even worse, companies don’t make them truly secure because their main goal is to keep users engaged. They offer just enough protection to look responsible, but not enough to hurt their business model.

TAG’s recommended filters provide real protection. They block more, are harder to bypass, and are tailored to your family’s needs. Our trained experts work alongside you to customize the settings, ensuring the right balance of access and safety. When it comes to keeping your family safe, don’t rely on weak controls—use a filter that actually works.
