@Father101 

Some content is automatically blocked when a phoen is using mobile data with Sky:

Other than that then perhaps there are apps that can help you with this.

@Father101 controlling content available to each device is not something the parental controls Sky provide can do and frankly while sounding like a good idea is unlikely to be that effective. Sky's Broadband Shield is explained here https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-broadband-shield-start but the filter affects all devices. The parental controls in Sky WiFi Max are about limiting access time for indidual devices but cannot control content.

 

The controls built into operating by Apple, Google and Microsofts children;'s accounts can be effective up to a point. As can some third party software. However be aware a determined kid will find a way around most of these restrictions as they are child resistant not child proof.
