Hi lgbo263,

the solution could be this:

Turn on Restrictions

  1. Tap Settings > General > Restrictions.

  2. Scroll down and tap Restrictions, then tap Enable Restrictions.
  3. Create a Restrictions passcode. You need your Restrictions passcode to change your settings or to turn off Restrictions.

If you forget your Restrictions passcode, you need to erase your device, then set it up as a new device to remove the Restrictions passcode. Restoring your device using a backup won't remove the Restrictions passcode.

Change your Restrictions passcode

To change your Restrictions passcode after you turn on Restrictions, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Settings > General > Restrictions.
  2. Enter your current Restrictions passcode.
  3. Tap Disable Restrictions, then enter your Restrictions passcode again.
  4. Tap Enable Restrictions, then enter a new Restrictions passcode.

If you're missing an app or feature, or can't use a certain service, try turning Restrictions off. Also, make sure to check that you haven't removed certain built-in apps.https://support.apple.com/kb/HT204221User uploaded file

I have try that but it's not a fully good protection because there's no password to the safe search function. So it doesn't really work if you can turn on and off that easy. I would rather prefer that ones you made the restriction on your iPhone that It also would have worked on pictures and not only on websites with adult content.


Are you with me?

From the sound of it this isn't for yourself but for someone else in the household. If this is truly for yourself then you'll just need to use self-control to not search for things that may bring up adult content. Even if there was a way to set a password you could just disable it at anytime. If this is for someone else, there are really only two options on the iPhone - Disable Safari or set the Restrictions to allow only specific websites.
