Web Filtering / Content Blocker for Android

Guide to setting up web filtering on Android devices

Last updated: November 11, 2025

Note: ScreenKin currently uses the Truple app for Android monitoring. While ScreenKin is developing its own dedicated apps, the Truple app provides the underlying technology for Android devices, including web filtering capabilities.

By default, ScreenKin provides monitoring and accountability. We also support web filtering to help block inappropriate content on your child's Android device. The instructions below will show you how to set up filtering on Android devices.

A word of caution

Because filters operate at the network level, there is a rare chance it could impact your internet connection. If this occurs, reach out to support@screenkin.com and describe what you're experiencing and we'll help diagnose the problem.
