Where can I set studying time?
Access your dashboard, enter your email to review filters and manage your kids’ studying time at: wifi.cyberpurify.com.
Why did I set studying time but it didn't appear on the dashboard?
Whenever you’ve done setting studying time, remember to Apply change(s) to Egg to save all your edits.
How could my kids open Facebook during Studying Time?
Due to apps’ cached content, children can still open and see old posts on Facebook during scheduled times. However, as images of these posts will not appear, it will destroy the experience of using Facebook and keep children away from this app. For Youtube, children can see a video in the first seconds before it is disconnected.
Also, making sure you have already scheduled Facebook/Youtube and saved changes.
I haven't set up yet but why I can't access Youtube?
To make it easier for you to get the hang of Egg, we have scheduled on default 3-time frames as follows:
- 24-hour – Always block Tinder
- 7-9:00 PM – Block Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Playstation, and Roblox (for homework)
- 4-5:30 PM – Block Youtube, Netflix, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and PlayStation (for outdoor activities)
You can see it when you log in to your Dashboard. Feel free to adjust it later.
Why can't Messenger operate when I only block the Facebook app, not Messenger?
Several apps may have different names but they are actually owned and operated by the same company. For example, Messenger is under the ownership of Meta and uses the same infrastructure with Facebook, therefore, when you block the Facebook app, you will also block Instagram.
Some apps have different names but are owned and operated by the same company, for example Instagram is owned by Meta and uses the same infrastructure as Facebook, so when you block Facebook, it will block Instagram.
Why can I still access the app when it is blocked in the dashboard?
During the time apps are not blocked, they have already cached some content. That’s why you can still access some old content. However, during this time, they will not be able to update new posts. This will destroy the experience of users, leading them to stop using those apps.
In some cases, apps can display thumbnails because they are already loaded when there is Internet connection. However, when clicking them, the images will not appear. This will also destroy the images of users, causing them to stop using apps.
Why do I still access adult websites after connecting to Egg?
The DNS cache is like a memory for your computer that helps it find websites faster. When you visit a website using an unprotected network, it will be saved in the cache and your computer will remember how to find it. If you then try to access the same website using a protected network like Egg, it might not be blocked because your computer still knows how to find it from the cache.
To solve this, you need to clear the DNS cache on your computer. Clearing the cache will erase the old information and allow your computer to use the latest information to find websites, including any blocked sites. Don’t worry, it’s easy to do.
To clear the DNS cache on a Linux computer, open the terminal and type the following command:
sudo systemd-resolve –flush-caches
On a Mac computer, open the terminal and type the following command:
sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder
On a Windows computer, open the Command Prompt and type the following command:
ipconfig /flushdns
On a Android device, open Settings and do the following steps:
- Tap on Storage or Memory
- Tap on “Cached data” or “Cache”
- Confirm by tapping “OK” or “Delete”
After you run the command, your computer’s DNS cache should be cleared and it will be able to find websites again using the latest information.
On an iPhone or iPad (running iOS), open Settings and do the following steps:
- Tap on General
- Tap on iPhone/iPad Storage
- Locate the app for which you want to clear cache and tap on it
- Tap on “Delete App” and confirm the action
Don’t worry, in reality, kids cannot switch between WiFi networks other than Egg’s, so they won’t meet this problem.
