'Safe Eyes Mobile', First Kid-Safe Browser for Apple iPhone, Now Available at iPhone App Store
New Browser Selectively Blocks Inappropriate Content In Multiple Categories To Give Parents Peace-of-Mind
ATLANTA, Feb. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- InternetSafety.com, the recognized leader
in Internet safety solutions, today announced that Safe Eyes(R) Mobile, the
first Internet browser that helps parents protect their children from exposure
to objectionable content on a mobile device, is now available for purchase
through the iPhone App Store. InternetSafety.com's Safe Eyes Mobile, designed
for the Apple iPhone, iPhone 3G and iPod Touch, blocks inappropriate pages
while giving users full access to the rest of the Web.
Safe Eyes Mobile works just like the built-in iPhone browser with pinch
and tap zoom, bookmarks, built-in Google search and multiple pages, and has no
noticeable effect on iPhone performance. The application carries an
introductory price of just $19.99; to purchase Safe Eyes Mobile, visit
http://www.safeeyes.com/iphone.
"With Safe Eyes Mobile, parents can allow their children to surf the Web
using the iPhone or other Apple mobile device, confident that they are as
protected as if they were at home using a PC equipped with Safe Eyes," said
Aaron Kenny, CTO of InternetSafety.com. "As the first browser application to
control iPhone content, Safe Eyes Mobile is the first solution to address this
serious problem without an all-or-nothing approach."
Featuring the same award-winning filtering technology found in Safe Eyes
software for PCs and Macs, Safe Eyes Mobile checks requested websites against
a massive blacklist of potentially objectionable web addresses that is updated
on a daily basis. It prevents iPhone and iPod Touch access to pages in the
pornography, nudity, sex and tasteless/gross categories by default.
Parents can configure Safe Eyes Mobile software to filter sites in 31
other categories by visiting http://www.safeeyes.com. Using the PIN-
controlled parental controls in the iPhone, they can also turn off the Apple
Safari browser and prevent other browsers from being installed, ensuring that
Safe Eyes Mobile is the only choice for surfing the Web.
Safe Eyes Mobile is the first all-around choice for Web content
protection. The iPhone itself can control Internet browsing only by blocking
Web access entirely, while AT&T's wireless Media Net Parental Controls do not
work on the iPhone at all. Safe Eyes Mobile filtering works on both the AT&T
cellular network and individual Wi-Fi networks to which the iPhone
automatically connects when in range.
Per-phone pricing for Safe Eyes Mobile includes automatic daily updates of
the product's Web site blacklist. To learn more, or to purchase Safe Eyes
Mobile at the special introductory price of $19.99, visit
