FilterV2 is in Beta
We've been working on a new DNS Filtering platform, which we've been referring to as #filterV2. The new platform has been in early access for the past few months and we're finally ready to make it available to the public.
The new platform provides a significant capability boost:
- Support for Standard iOS devices (full device management is no longer required)
- IPv6, DNS over TLS, and DNS over HTTPS support
- Powerful Content Policy composed of layered rules that can be scoped to a schedule, audience, and hundreds of apps, categories, or domains.
- Unchangeable "breadcrumb trail" that shows changes made to your account, like if a rule was modified or turned off.
- Invite other people to your account to share your DNS Content Policy.
- Profile locking with more options for customizing how you lock it. A secondary email address is no longer required. The same concept applies where locking your profile will prevent you from changing settings that reduce restrictions, but you can still add to restrictions.
Chatbot
We've integrated an AI chatbot that is trained on all of the information we provide. Content blocking and device management can be overwhelming, but the chatbot will help people get answers to their questions more quickly.
Apple Config Generator
IOS devices can install a file that automatically sets the network settings on the device.
We released an Apple Config generator that lets you easily generate and install the config that would link to your personal Content Policy. If your iOS device is supervised, you can prevent the profile from being removed. Check it out.
Help Docs
With the release of the new platform, we've added a new help section to the website with tutorials. Check it out.
