Useless for me. I couldn't visit a site I wanted to visit. I could add to the whitelist, but that didn't help.

This app works so great for my needs. Thank you. I wanted a solution to restrict access to only a few websites. And this browser really does the job well.

I am looking for a browser app that allows you to only use one website (because I watch free movie sites and they all are malicious). This app does do it. But it allows ads from the webpage and i can't seem to get the movie on to full screen. If there was an option to only use one window, blocking all other requests to open new tabs or wi dows no matter what i click on ( those movie sites have those invisible links), or if your app allowed fullscreen and had adblock it would be PERFECT. FIX & 5*

It works well but missing 2 things for me. The ability to use a local file as the home page and the use of the clipboard on a webpage.

Not bad, but probably good just for kids. It allows a maximum of 20 white listed sites and has other limitations. It could be a great, secure browser, with some more work. In my case, it also tended to freeze up, for some reason, until I closed and restarted it. In conclusion, OK for kids, not practical for adults. Three stars, at best.

About this app

Sandbox is a web browser for Android devices (It’s a Universal app for both phones and tablets) that restricts users to a predefined list of allowed websites (called a “whitelist”).

Sandbox is a great solution for a variety of settings in which users should only be browsing specified sites. These possible settings could be the classroom, kids’ use at home, kiosks, restaurants, retail outlets and more.

Additionally, Sandbox offers the following features:
• Lock configuration settings with a passcode to prevent users from changing settings
• Add bookmarks for approved websites
• Customize the appearance of the user interface to enable or disable features
• Easily configure multiple devices using a property list file
• Automatically return to the preset home page after the device has been idle for a specified amount of time

Possible Uses

Home and Classroom – Parents and teachers can ensure students are only going to appropriate websites. This is great for academic settings where safesearch is required.

Work Devices – System administrators for large deployments of devices could ensure that the devices purchased for work use are being used to only interact with approved websites.

Kiosks – System administrators in visitors’ centers at places of business or museums could create a contained environment using Sandbox, meaning users could not visit other apps while using the iPad.

Restaurants – Have patrons order using a Web-accessible menu, but restrict them from freely browsing.

Retail Outlets – Shoppers could view an online catalog of the store’s inventory or online product brochure without having to give open web access to them
