10月4日的KarosGuard — Porn Blocker应用程序分析

KarosGuard blocks pornography and short-video feeds on Android. It closes porn sites in every browser on your phone, cuts off endless short-video feeds, and makes the protection hard to switch off in a weak moment. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ WHAT IT DOES ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ▸ Blocks adult content An accessibility service reads the address and the text of the page you have open, and closes pornography in any browser — Chrome, Firefox, Samsung Internet, Opera and the rest. The domain lists update themselves. ▸ Network filter A second, independent layer: porn domains are cut off at the phone level through Android's own Private DNS. It keeps working even when the app is closed. ▸ Short videos Single-purpose apps — TikTok, Likee, Kwai — close completely. Inside YouTube only the Shorts feed closes; the rest of YouTube keeps working. The same goes for youtube.com/shorts and instagram.com/reels opened in a browser. ▸ Time limits A daily limit for a chosen app or website. When the time runs out, it stays shut until tomorrow. ▸ Hard to undo in a weak moment A self-lock for up to 14 days: while it runs, protection cannot be turned off or weakened — not even from inside the app. And an ordinary switch-off takes effect only after 24 hours, and you can cancel it with one tap the whole time. The idea is simple: a relapse happens in a rush, and a rush does not survive a day. ▸ Accountability partner If the protection does get switched off, someone you chose is told in Telegram. You send the invitation yourself — you cannot just type in somebody's username, and they have to accept it. ▸ Calendar and streak Every protected day is visible, with your current streak and your best one. Only you can mark a relapse — the app never accuses you of anything on its own. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ HONEST ABOUT THE LIMITS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The app is young. Sometimes it closes a page that should have stayed open — the protection would rather play it safe. The block screen has a "Report an error" button: one tap, the address reaches us, and the lists get better for everyone. No Android app can stop the accessibility service from being switched off. That is the operating system protecting itself, and anyone who tells you otherwise is selling something. Our goal is not to make it impossible, but to make it pointless — that is what the 24-hour delay, the self-lock and the message to someone who matters are for. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ PRIVACY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ All the filtering happens on your device. Your browsing history is never uploaded and never sold. The app does not use a VPN and does not route your traffic through any server of ours. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Questions and suggestions — Telegram: t.me/Karos777_bot
