Measured on six things

LockedWeb is a porn blocker with no instant off switch, using a 72-hour cooldown to keep protection on when willpower is weakest.

Growth

Real, painful problem with a genuine wedge — the 72-hour no-off-switch mechanic — against password-based rivals. Niche but defensible; ceiling is limited by category size.

LockedWeb

About this app

LockedWeb is a porn blocker built around one simple idea: the decision you make when you’re thinking clearly should still count later. Unlike traditional blockers that can be disabled in a weak moment, LockedWeb has no instant off switch. Removing or loosening protection requires a 72-hour cooldown, and protection stays active while you wait. LockedWeb works across your devices to block explicit content, enforce safer browsing, and create a boundary that is intentionally difficult to undo on impulse. It’s designed for individuals, couples, and families who want more than another filter—they want protection that actually holds when willpower is at its weakest.

Key features

172-hour cooldown on removal with no password to find — protection stays active while the clock runs.
2Cross-platform blocking on iPhone, Android, Windows, and Mac, covering every app and browser.
3Zero browsing history stored — no reports, no screenshots, no activity shared with accountability partners.

Optional alerts about boundary challenges without detailed browsing reports.

Scout Review

Written by AI from measured evidence, scored out of 100.

LockedWeb is a porn blocker built on one honest insight: the decision you make calmly should survive the moment you don't. Instead of a password anyone can find, removal triggers a 72-hour cooldown during which protection stays fully active, with an optional accountability alert. It blocks explicit content across iPhone, Android, Windows, and Mac, forces SafeSearch, supports a custom blocklist, and — notably — stores no browsing history, so there are no reports to leak or weaponize. Pricing is flat and fair: $69/yr or $9.99/mo for up to 25 devices. The site is fast on desktop, clean, and backed by an unusually good guides library. The weak spots are real but minor: mobile LCP at 3.3s, no CSP header, no published audit, two accessibility contrast failures, and no free trial. For its specific audience, the core mechanic is the differentiator, and it holds up.

Measure by measure

Usability

Transparent pricing ($69/yr, 25 devices), a 30-day guarantee, and genuinely useful /guides walkthroughs. No free trial and the 72-hour flow, while clear, is a commitment.

Design

Clean, confident landing page with strong 'NO OFF SWITCH' branding and clear diagrams. Lacks product screenshots and app-store presence, so the actual UI is hard to judge.

Speed

Lighthouse desktop 99/100 and mobile 85/100 with CLS 0.028 and TBT 63ms. Mobile LCP of 3.3s is the weak spot, above the 2.5s 'good' threshold.

Security

HTTPS+HSTS, frame protection, SPF/DMARC all present; CSP and Permissions-Policy missing (9/12). No SOC 2 or third-party audit published, but privacy stance is explicit.

Accessibility

Lighthouse a11y 92/100 with only contrast and color-only-link failures. Responsive and mobile-friendly, but no WCAG statement and English-only content.

Growth

Real, painful problem with a genuine wedge — the 72-hour no-off-switch mechanic — against password-based rivals. Niche but defensible; ceiling is limited by category size.

Improvement areas

No free trial — only a 30-day money-back guarantee, which raises the barrier to trying the product.
Missing CSP and Permissions-Policy headers, and no published third-party security audit.
Two Lighthouse accessibility failures (color contrast, color-only links) and no WCAG conformance statement.

Design & Usability

LockedWeb's site leads with a strong, unambiguous promise: 'PORN BLOCKED. NO OFF SWITCH.' The branding is confident and the 72-hour removal flow is diagrammed clearly, which matters because that mechanic is the entire product. Pricing is refreshingly plain — $69/yr or $9.99/mo, up to 25 devices, 30-day money-back guarantee — and the /guides section is a genuine surprise, with step-by-step walkthroughs for Netflix, Disney+, YouTube, and a dozen other services' own parental controls. That's the kind of content most blockers skip. The gaps: no free trial (only a refund window), no product screenshots or app-store listing to judge the actual UI, and the 72-hour cooldown, while the point, is a heavy onboarding commitment. Usability is competent and honest rather than delightful.

Speed & Security

Speed is solid where it counts: Lighthouse desktop 99/100, mobile 85/100, with CLS 0.028 and TBT 63ms — the page is stable and responsive. The one soft spot is mobile LCP at 3.3s, above Google's 2.5s 'good' threshold, so slower phones will feel a beat of delay before the hero renders. The site claims filtering 'happens in milliseconds,' but that's a product claim, not a benchmark we could verify. On security, the probe found HTTPS enforced with HSTS, frame protection, X-Content-Type-Options, Referrer-Policy, plus SPF and DMARC — 9 of 12 checklist points. Missing: CSP and Permissions-Policy. There's no SOC 2, ISO, or third-party audit published, which is typical for a product at this stage but leaves the privacy guarantee ('we never record your history') resting on their word alone.

Accessibility & Growth

Accessibility scores 92/100 on Lighthouse, with only two failing audits: insufficient color contrast and links distinguishable only by color. Both are fixable and neither is structural — the site is responsive and mobile-friendly. There's no WCAG conformance statement and no multi-language support, so international and assistive-tech users get a functional but unpolished experience. Growth is the more interesting question. The problem LockedWeb names is real and specific: people who want to stop compulsive porn use but can't out-willpower a 1 a.m. urge. The wedge — a 72-hour cooldown with no password to find — is genuinely different from Covenant Eyes (monitoring), BlockerX (password-disabled), Canopy/Qustodio (family PINs), Bark (surveillance), and Freedom (easily toggled). That's a defensible position in a category where every rival's weakness is the same: the off switch. The ceiling is the category itself — a niche, sensitive market — but within it, the positioning is sharp and the target customer is named clearly.

Conclusion

LockedWeb won't win a design award or a compliance trophy, and it doesn't try to. What it does is take the single hardest part of quitting porn — the moment willpower folds — and engineer around it with a 72-hour delay that no password can shortcut. That's a narrow, unglamorous promise, and it's exactly the one this audience needs. If you've bounced off Covenant Eyes because reports felt invasive, or off BlockerX because you knew the password, the cooldown model is worth the $69. The caveats are honest ones: no free trial, no third-party audit, and a mobile page that could be a touch snappier. None of that touches the core mechanic. Decide on a clear day, and let the clock do the rest.

Suggestions for improvement

Add a 7-day free trial or a limited free tier — the 30-day refund is good, but a trial lowers the commitment barrier significantly.
Publish a security/trust page with a third-party audit or at least a detailed data-handling breakdown to back the 'we never record history' claim.
Fix the two Lighthouse accessibility failures: bump color contrast and add underlines or icons so links aren't color-only.
Ship product screenshots or a short demo video on the homepage — the 72-hour flow deserves to be seen, not just read.
