About this app

BlockerHero is the most effective app to block pornographic and adult content on your smartphone, and help you to improve your productivity and focus.

Important Features

Block Adult Content⛔
If this is enabled, you will not be able to access adult content/websites on your browser, and this feature also works on social media apps that contain these types of words.

Uninstall Protection🚫
While using this feature you can prevent yourself from uninstalling this app unless your accountability partner allows you, and this makes the BlockerHero different from other apps.
This requires device administrator permission (BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN).

Accountability Partner
You can add an accountability partner so that whenever you want to turn off/reset any blocker option, you have to ask your partner friend.

Block Websites/keywords & Apps
If you want to block a particular website, keyword, or app that is distracting you from your goals or study then you can easily block it from your blocklist page.

YouTube Safe Search
By default, BlockerHero also blocks adult content on YouTube. If you try to search for any bad content on YouTube, this app will block you from accessing the content immediately.

Focus Mode🕑
This feature is very important if you want more focus and productivity in life.
How it works: In focus mode, you schedule the focus time (e.g. 4:30 PM - 5:45 PM) and during the active focus time only Call/SMS and your custom selected apps are allowed, other apps will be blocked.

Important permissions required by the app:
1. Accessibility Service(BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE): This permission is used to block adult websites and apps on your phone.
2. System alert window(SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW): This permission is used to display a blocked window overlay over the blocked adult content.
3. Device admin app(BIND_DEVICE_ADMIN): This permission is used to prevent you from uninstalling the BlockerHero app.

With BlockerHero you & your family are protected from adult content.

Ratings and reviews

This app has been immensely helpful for me. I will lower it down a star because of a recent update, making things more difficult to whitelist. I used to be able to filter keywords like "spicy", but whitelist it in appropriate contexts like "spicy ramen." Now, it won't allow me to whitelist a word at all if it's contained anywhere within a keyword on the blocklist. That's frustrating. I used to appreciate how the app allowed me to block keywords under specific contexts but allow it in others.

This is the only porn blocker app that works for me. I haven't found a way to delete it, and I love that. It blocks every route I could take in my settings. Super customizable and a great value at only 2 or 3 bucks per month. The only thing I don't like is that the paragraph prompts it gives you when you want to update a certain setting is nearly impossible with the time limit it gives you. It should give you the option when you sign up to have someone else as an accountability partner.

Works excellently, but that is sometimes a problem when using YouTube. It catches certain key words and blocks the screen, which is good during moments of weakness for me, but it becomes a nuisance when videos and usernames use those certain key words. I also feel like this app is currently having a negative effect on me using Google: whenever I search for something on Google, the page will continuously reload until it crashes.
