Halt vs Covenant Eyes

Covenant Eyes works by sending screenshots of your screen to another person, for $18 a month. Halt blocks adult sites on your whole PC privately, with no screenshots and no reports, and makes turning the filter off wait for a cool-down you set in advance. Halt Pro is $29, paid once.

Why people choose Halt

Nobody sees your screen

Halt takes no screenshots, keeps no history of the sites you visit, and sends nothing to anyone. The block does the work on its own.

$29 once, not $18 a month

Over three years, Covenant Eyes costs $594 on its yearly plan. Halt Pro costs $29, once.

A cool-down you set in advance

Turning the filter off waits out the cool-down you picked when you were thinking clearly. With Permanent, it takes 30 days, or an unlock code from Halt support.

It can't be removed on impulse

While the filter is on, Halt can't be uninstalled. A late-night urge passes long before anything changes.

Every browser and app

The filter covers Chrome, Edge, Brave, Firefox, private windows and every other app on the PC, with SafeSearch locked on Google, Bing and DuckDuckGo.

A focus blocker too

The same app blocks the sites, apps and games you waste time on, for set focus sessions or on a schedule.
