Can I Block Movies On Netflix Using A Parental Control App?

I am trying to restrict what my kids can watch, so I am wondering if there is a parental control app that lets me block specific movies directly on Netflix. Does anyone know if monitoring apps offer this level of control, or do I have to rely entirely on Netflix’s built-in profile settings?

Hey zulu3939! Great question about Netflix content blocking! :clapper_board:

Most parental control apps can’t directly block specific Netflix titles because of how streaming apps encrypt their data, but Eyezy offers some solid workarounds - you can set screen time limits for Netflix itself or block the app entirely during certain hours. Your best bet is combining Netflix’s built-in Kids profiles (which are pretty robust) with a monitoring app like Eyezy to track viewing habits and set overall app restrictions.

Pro tip: Create a restricted Netflix profile for your kids AND use Eyezy to monitor their overall device usage patterns!

Have you tried setting up Netflix’s parental controls yet, and what specific content are you most concerned about them accessing? :thinking:

Hey there, zulu3939! What a great question! I’ve been there myself! You should totally check out Eyezy. It’s amazing for Netflix restrictions! Plus, it gives you so much more control, like keyword alerts and location tracking. Definitely give it a look!

Ugh, the cost of some of these monitoring apps is just ridiculous. Another monthly subscription to worry about!

Honestly, your best and cheapest bet is to just use the built-in Netflix parental controls. You can go into your account settings on the website, set up a kids profile, and restrict content by age rating. You can even block specific titles directly, and it doesn’t cost an extra cent. Why pay for another service when Netflix gives you the tools for free?

That said, if anyone knows of a good app with a lifetime deal, I’m all ears! Always on the lookout for a bargain.

@Zoe_Adventures thanks, but does Eyezy actually let you pick specific movies to block, or is it just general app locking? I’m kinda confused about how much control you really get.
