Need help with Voyager?

Scan and Focus are designed to stay within the site you intentionally opened. A link to an unrelated website may be blocked even when the link itself is legitimate.

Not yet. Links you tap in other apps won’t open in Voyager. While Device Protection is on, links from other apps won’t open on their own while Safari is removed. Scan a code, or open the site from Focus or Emergency.

Use Emergency when you need broader web access and Scan or Focus cannot complete the task. Emergency is temporary and uses the duration and daily-session limits you chose ahead of time.

Changes that make Voyager less restrictive wait 24 hours before they take effect, or 7 days in Hardcore. Turning off Device Protection takes 30 days. Changes that make it more restrictive happen immediately. Your first setup is immediate.

Device Protection is optional and included with your subscription. You turn it on yourself. It uses Apple Screen Time. While it is on, Safari is removed from your iPhone, and the App Store and new app installs are blocked. When Voyager isn’t on screen, websites in other apps’ built-in browsers are blocked too, except your Trusted Sites.

It isn’t a guarantee. Screen Time can be bypassed, and behavior can differ between iOS versions.

Open Voyager, go to Settings › Device Protection, and tap Turn Off Device Protection…. Press and hold the button on the confirmation to start a 30-day wait. The wait is the same in Standard and Hardcore, and Voyager shows the date it ends. Until then, Device Protection stays on.

After that date, Voyager removes its Screen Time restrictions the next time you open it. Voyager needs to confirm the current time to start and to finish the wait, so it may ask you to connect to the internet. Changing the date on your iPhone or switching between Standard and Hardcore is not meant to shorten the wait.

You can cancel the request at any time before then with Cancel Request.

You don’t need an active subscription to turn Device Protection off. If your subscription has ended, the subscription screen links to Device Protection while it is on.

That is an Apple Screen Time feature, not part of Voyager. With the passcode they control Screen Time settings on your iPhone, including removing Voyager’s Screen Time access, which can stop Device Protection’s restrictions, and, if they set it up, whether apps can be deleted. Voyager can’t see or recover that passcode. If you lose touch with them, Apple’s Screen Time recovery options are the only way back, and that can be difficult.

When Apple confirms that your subscription has ended, for example because it expired or was refunded, Voyager removes its own Screen Time restrictions the next time you open it, and shows the subscription screen. Your Focus sites and Trusted Sites are kept. If you subscribe again, Device Protection stays off until you turn it on yourself.

If Voyager can’t confirm your subscription, for example while you’re offline, nothing changes. Connect to the internet and tap Check Subscription.

Turning off auto-renewal doesn’t change anything until the end of the period you’ve paid for.

Voyager needs Screen Time authorization to apply Device Protection. Without that permission, Voyager cannot enforce those system-level restrictions.

Camera access is used by Scan to recognize QR codes. The permission is requested when you first use Scan.

Voyager V1 does not operate a ModusBios server that receives your browsing history. Websites you visit can still receive information from your device under their own privacy policies.

Open Voyager Settings and use Clear Focus & Scan Website Data. This clears the shared persistent website data used by Focus and Scan without deleting your Focus list or commitment settings.

Voyager can allow supported system actions such as calls, email, messages, and maps when they are part of the task you are doing.

Voyager subscriptions are managed through your Apple ID and the App Store. Apple handles billing, renewals, and cancellation.
