nextdns profile iphone breaks content restrictions

I added nextdns to a teen phone only to block ads and tracking that I had previously setup with parental control.  He was able to access sites the family had discussed not viewing.  It seems nextdns profile is breaking content filtering of iphone parent controls.

NextDNS profile itself will block porn but I would prefer notifications from iphone parental control.

 

My parenting approach is allow and notify rather than outright block

    If iPhone parental control is using an Apple DNS server to do whatever it does, NextDNS would definitely bypass Apple’s control.   You might be better off with NextDNS and use its logging ability to see what the kid has been up to.   It won’t give you alerts but you can easily audit the logs
