I would like to allow my son access to Netlfix.  The problem, however, appears to be that the Netlfix app must be downloaded for him to be able to watch movies.  If I install the app monitor can Mobicip block R rated movies?  Or can I get a list of which movies he has been watching........Thanks.

Re: Netflix

Please note that Mobicip's filter works only on the Mobicip Safe Browser and not on any other apps available on the device. While we would like to make our filtering service work with other apps on the device, we are not allowed to create software that runs in the background. Hence, we had to create our own browser to provide filtered internet access. Please note that this is the case with any other internet filter available for Apple's/Android mobile devices.
 
In other words, Mobicip cannot filter/restrict content accessed through Netflix or any other app. We understand your concern, but our hands are tied by the limitations imposed by iOS.

What if I don't care about

What if I don't care about the content being filtered and I just want them to be able to use Netflix?

Hello Crystal
In that case, you can very well allow them to have access to the native Netflix app. In case of mobile devices, our app runs in a sandbox and cannot affect anything in the system, and this is a restriction imposed by OS that no developer can violate even if we wanted to.
