I tested it against some of the best VPNs on the market and they weren’t able to bypass Net Nanny’s parental controls. Qustodio is able to detect 25+ categories of content, but it doesn’t allow you to create custom filters. Net Nanny’s web filtering also works using a VPN. You just create a list of keywords for Net Nanny to detect, and it will either block the category or alert you when your child accesses content containing any keywords you’ve listed. I really like that Net Nanny allows you to create custom filters - if you want to detect or block a type of content that Net Nanny doesn’t automatically monitor, creating a new rule is incredibly easy. It also lets you create lists of websites that are always allowed or blocked regardless of the filtering rules. Net Nanny gives you 3 options for monitoring and filtering content - you can allow or block access to a particular category, or you can allow your child to access the content but receive an alert when they do. It can automatically monitor for 10+ categories of content, including Nudity, Gambling, Drugs, and more, but you can also create custom rules and monitor any keywords you want. Net Nanny is then able to determine the context of words like “breast” or “drug”, allowing your child to visit websites that may be talking about anatomy, cooking, medicine, etc., while blocking access to websites with adult content or those related to street drugs. It allows you to choose what type of content your child is able to view online - it uses advanced text-analysis to scan each website your child visits in real-time. Net Nanny’s web filtering works pretty well. Net Nanny also allows you to lock the settings menu to keep your children from attempting to disable the app, and it provides uninstall protection that requires your account password to delete the app (not available on iOS devices).
