I have an older version iPhone.
I guess I’m addicted to a certain extent .
Mainly to this site!
I check my texts and WhatsApp messages but I’m not so social so I’m probably fine with just texting. I don’t want to text on a flip phone after texting with a full keyboard the last few years.
I enjoy clicking on statuses but that’s probably the addiction.
I like being able to check my email.
I check local news websites and Jewish news websites .
I order things online.
I order groceries.
I have the amazon and Walmart app and order regularly.
I don’t play games and watch movies.
But I still think I’m too attached.
Problem is my teen son. Big problem. He uses my phone and threatens that he’ll buy his own if I don’t allow him to use mine. Although I have restrictions for inappropriate things in my settings it’s just not enough. I tried disabling YouTube and he went crazy.
I just have to say that my phone broke (it is somewhat broken) and buy a very filtered phone.
Maybe not a smartphone but I think I still want one.
I want it for myself and for the sake of my children.
Please tell me which kosher smartphone or something very similar you recommend.

I have an iPhone with Gentech Machane Kadosh filter. It’s more filtered that reg gen tech it was required by one of my kids school.
I have what’s app and any app I need manly news and banking. I have my safari and can use most shopping sites. I have this site.
No YouTube but If an approved site has a YouTube video embedded on the page then I can see the video.
On my home computer I have teqlock filter with image filtering too. Usually when I request a site that’s blocked if it’s not a social app they will approve in a few min. On Friday my son asked to watch football reruns and I was sure it wouldn’t approve NFL.com but it first didn’t asking if I was sure and I clicked yes… now I’m a little regretting it cause I know my son will be asking me constantly to go on it…

How much did the filtered phone cost you? What type of phone did you get?
