Filtering web content on 
iOS
 devices

You can use web content filter profiles to limit the websites that a user can view in 
Safari
 or other browser apps on a supervised 
iOS
 device. You can assign web content filter profiles to user accounts, user groups, or device groups.
When you create a web content filter profile, you can choose the allowed websites option that supports your organization's standards for the use of mobile devices.
This profile applies to supervised 
iOS
 devices only.
Allowed websites
Description
Specific websites only
This option allows access to only the websites that you specify. A bookmark is created in 
Safari
 for each allowed website.
Limit adult content
This option enables automatic filtering to identify and block inappropriate content. You can also include specific websites using the following settings:
  • Permitted URLs: You can add one or more URLs to allow access to specific websites. Users can view websites in this list regardless of whether automatic filtering blocks access.
  • Blacklisted URLs: You can add one or more URLs to deny access to specific websites. Users cannot view websites in this list regardless of whether automatic filtering allows access.
