  • on the device itself

Examples of such DNS service providers are:

Re: I can't use Child Safe.

Hey @Jonno12321,

Welcome back to the community and thanks for taking the time to post.
I'm really sorry to hear of the issues that you're having with Child safe, this is currently being investigated at the moment. 

Has the advice and temporary workaround from @用心棒, helped you to block the content that you didn't want to be seen?

Regards,

Steven_L

Re: I can't use Child Safe.

Yes,

I've changed the DNS on the devices I want to protect and it seems to work well so far.
