There are several free ways to block inappropriate content on Google Chrome, such as using SafeSearch and built-in web filters in Chrome. However, these tools are very basic, and kids can bypass the rules with ease. In the end, you really get what you pay for.
The best way to block inappropriate content is with a premium parental control app that has a comprehensive web filter. After extensive testing, Bark proved to be the best option. Its AI filter understands context and focuses on child health issues, cyberbullying, violence, and inappropriate content. The filter is very good, and my kids weren't able to find a way to bypass it, including using a VPN, incognito mode, or switching from Chrome to a different browser. You can try Bark free for 7 days and see how easy the filter is to set up and manage for yourself.
