Victory by Covenant Eyes 4+

If you are looking at this app for yourself. Then just do it. I went back and forth for well over 2 years thinking my addiction wasn’t “that” bad. Or I’d just come up with excuses and delays. An addiction to *ornography won’t just go away into the night. You have to take an active stand against it.

I was really blown away by how encouraging the comment and prayer section of the app is. The replies and responses are pre generated for very understandable reasons given the topic. But they help! This addiction and its combo with shame really make you feel alone. This app does the opposite. The vpn works well for blocking explicit material. But of course at the end of the day we have to be responsible and use discipline to. But my lord does this app flipping help. Please please please just give it a try.

Covenant Eyes says on their website “The Covenant Eyes app captures a screenshot on your device at least once per minute.”
This is not true. The app is downloaded and VPN is on and it does not screenshot once per minute. If that was the case then we wouldn’t have gaps in screenshots captured. We started to notice that what was being searched for was not showing up in the activity feed. We have called support numerous times only to be finally told that it screenshots at random and not as advertised. We are using this product to block porn but to also hold what is being looked at, non explicit content wise, accountable. Porn is a big issue but other non explicit content like bikini photos can still be searched and if a screenshot is not being taken once per minute to capture what is being searched, then this product is not effective because the non explicit content can still be viewed undedcted. Very disappointed that this product is being advertised for something it doesn’t actually do.

Heard about this on a sermon for a Men’s Discipleship class. It takes screens shots of anything you’re looking up, It doesn’t even have to be explicit. My Pastor is my accountability partner, so knowing my Pastor can see what I’m looking at already keeps me in line. Since I’ve downloaded this app, I’ve been free from looking at porn. Adding to this, you have to discipline your prayer life and what you look at outside the app. Tik tok, twitter, Instagram, Facebook, have all kinds of things that can come across explicit things. One of the things my Pastor said, “the best filter you can have is yourself.” So my brother and sisters in Christ that are struggling, keep fighting the good fight and flee from it like Joseph did from Potepher’s wife. Look at sin, the same way God looks at it. God bless
