Hi
I am due an upgrade on my phone and note that many phones now have Android 4.4.2 software on them. What software can I install on my phone, if any, that is effective in blocking gambling sites? I have read into K9 but some people say it crashes on Android 4.4.2 - I was just wondering please if anyone has any experience of this?
Thank you
I have a samsung galaxy s4 and have been using net nanny which i downloaded from the play store and it works brilliant for me.it blocks everything gambling related.even blocks gamcare but you can enter in exceptions so as it doesnt block here.
I set up a password for it and email address with yahoo.i then blocked all access to yahoo through net nanny and destroyed the password.so now if i get an urge it would be very difficult for me to gain access to gambling through my phone.and urges will have passed.im 142 days gamble free so urges fewer now and less intense.
I think it was only a tenner and easy to set up.you will only be able to use the net nanny browser but it works great and thats a small price to pay to keep gamble free.
I tried k9 on my phone but it kept messing my phone up and also gamblock which i paid 30 quid for and totally froze my fone.
Affected by gambling?
