Congratulations! SecureIT is installed and is working full-time to keep you safe while browsing sites. Now let’s get started with SecureIT iOS!

You’ll see SecureIT’s main menu after installation. From here you can manage browser protection, setup your anti-theft features, adjust your parental controls, and monitor your device’s activity.

The first thing you’ll want to do is make sure the VPN Browsing is enabled followed by setting up your anti-theft features. We’ll walk through how simple it is to do both below. We’ll also show you a short walk-through of setting up your parental control options and managing your application permissions.

ENABLING VPN BROWSING

 

Upon installing SecureIT, you will see a prompt to enable the VPN. For SecureIT’s Web Security and Parental Controls to work in 3rd party browsers, this feature must be enabled, otherwise if disabled you must use the built-in Secure Browser to utilize these features.

If not chosen during installation, you can enable the VPN by performing the following:

  • Press Protection from the hamburger menu or from the app’s main menu.
  • Slide the switch ON under the VPN Browsing option.
