How to block web pages in google chrome on your android mobile

On certain occasions, our children use our mobile to spend some time entertaining, watching some YouTube videos or children's television series. The phone can, however, be a door that your child can open, accessing content that is not recommended for their age. What to do to be completely calm and safe when we give our son a mobile phone, or when he has his own but is not of legal age yet? One of the most recommended is prohibiting access to certain web pages with inappropriate content. To do this, browsers offer a series of very easy-to-use tools. And this is where we come in: we are going to choose one of the most used Internet browsers on an Android mobile, Google Chrome, and we are going to teach you how to block certain web pages. It is very simple!

To block web pages on your Android mobile, we are going to download a free application, and without ads, that we will find in Google Chrome and that is called Block Site, a completely free tool that also does not incorporate ads or payments inside. For the application to work correctly we must give it the corresponding permissions in the accessibility section. Don't worry because your own phone will tell you what to do.

Once we have carried out this operation, we continue with the Block Site configuration. In the next screen that we will see, we will be able to see an icon in the form of '+'. It is this icon that we are going to click to place all those web pages to which we want to restrict access. It is not necessary that you put the http, not even the three w's, just the name of the web is enough. For example, in this case, we are going to restrict access from Google Chrome to the Facebook website. To do this, we put in the application 'facebook.com' and that's it, as it appears in the following screenshots. The moment they want to enter the page, a nice message will appear, courtesy of the application itself.

In addition, the Block Site application can also serve those of us who need to concentrate on our work but who, in the end, always end up picking up the mobile and getting distracted by the odd application such as Instagram or WhatsApp (although the latter we usually use even for the job). With the Block Site tool we can do the same as with the webs: prohibit access to certain applications chosen by ourselves. When the user opens an application that is blocked by the tool, a message appears again and we will not be able to access it.

Here we will have entered the ' Working Mode ' (Work Mode). We will do the same as in the previous case: select forbidden websites and applications and configure a ban time. During all that time we will not be able to enter the websites that we bookmark or certain applications.

In the Block Site application, we also have a third tab in which, by means of a switch, we can prohibit access to all adult content websites, something very useful when we lend the phone to our children.
