Net Nanny has announced the availability of a safe web browser for kinds wielding iOS devices. Bearing the same name as the company which created it, the Net Nanny iOS app promises to make web surfing safe for kids of all ages.

Net Nanny for iOS is a customizable “safe” Internet browser with built-in filters to block all kinds of mature content, including blood and gore, and even mild stuff like swimsuits.

The app is designed to replace the standard Safari browser from Apple, “to help protect kids from viewing unsuitable online material.” Parents are encouraged to disable Safari and only allow the use of Net Nanny on their kids’ iPhones, iPads, and iPod touch players.

With Net Nanny, parents can choose between three safety settings: high, medium, and low.

“Our goal has always been to protect kids online wherever they access the Internet,” said Russ Warner, CEO of Net Nanny. “Net Nanny iOS now provides strong online protection to help prevent kids from viewing online materials that can be unsafe or too mature – ensuring safe Internet surfing.”
