Haven does not claim to cover everything, everywhere. It makes one space genuinely clean — and tells you the truth about its edges. Most of what falls outside is a choice, not a failure, and nearly every one of those choices has a way back in.
Three of these Haven can measure from this browser right now. One you confirm with your own eyes. Three depend on things we cannot see — so we ask, and we take your word rather than inventing a number.
Known adult sites do not resolve on this connection, on every device using it.
The browser honours the protected DNS instead of quietly resolving on its own.
Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari can all use their own encrypted DNS, which routes around network protection without telling anyone.
Haven is watching this browser: household rules enforced, trust cards on companies as you shop.
SafeSearch and Restricted Mode are locked on and cannot be turned off in the browser.
X, Reddit and Discord have their own adult content settings turned down as far as they go.
These sites host safe and adult content on the same address, so blocking by domain cannot separate them. Haven cannot yet filter inside the page — we would rather say so than pretend.
The apps that ignore network protection have been swapped for their browser versions.
A native app can pin its own connection and bypass DNS entirely. No DNS product can see inside one — the honest fix is not to use it.
School laptops, consoles and other homes are accounted for.
Haven cannot reach a device it was never set up on. This is a map, not a claim.
When Haven's setup has run on this device, 4 search and video services are pinned to their locked-safe addresses. That means SafeSearch and YouTube Restricted Mode cannot be switched off in any browser on this machine — not by a teenager, not by a guest, not by accident.
We will open a Google search that asks for SafeSearch to be turned off. If the lock is working, Google will refuse and say so near the top of the page.
Did the page say SafeSearch is locked by your network administrator?
Not locked? Run the setup for Windows or Mac — the same script that sets your protected DNS also puts the lock in place.
This is the part nobody tells parents. A native app can pin its own connection and ignore every protection on your network — no DNS product on earth can see inside one. But the same service in a browser sits fully inside your protected space, with Haven present on the page. Same account, same cart, same feed. You are not giving anything up except the part that was designed to bypass you.
X now formally permits adult content. Reddit and Discord host it beside everything else, on the same address. Blocking by domain cannot separate the good from the bad here, and Haven cannot yet filter inside the page — so rather than pretend, here is exactly how to turn each platform's own switches down, and what that does and does not achieve.
Honestly: This is X’s own switch and X decides what counts. It reduces exposure substantially but it is a setting on an account, not a wall — signing out or a second account undoes it.
Open the settings pageHonestly: Reddit hides most adult communities behind this flag, but subreddits self-label and some slip through. Treat it as a strong filter, not a guarantee.
Open the settings pageHonestly: The DNS pin forces this in the browser whether or not anyone signs in — which is why the browser is the version to use.
Open the settings pageHonestly: Discord permits adult-flagged servers platform-wide and Haven cannot see inside a server. For younger children the honest answer is not to use it yet.
Open the settings pageParental controls have become genuinely unmanageable — Screen Time, Family Link, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo, Steam, Roblox, Discord, YouTube, and a portal at your internet provider, each with its own PIN and its own idea of what a child is. Haven is not going to add a tenth console to that pile. What it will do is tell you which of those actually matter for your household, and which you can stop maintaining because the browser already covers it.
A device Haven was never set up on is not protected, and we will not colour it green. Mark this row once you have thought about the machines outside this one — a school Chromebook, a console, a grandparent's tablet — so the map reflects your household rather than this browser.
A CROS technician will set up your protected space, run the swaps with you, and leave your household on the green side of this map.
