How to turn on safe search in google chrome browser - Full Guide 2023

To enable Safe Search in Google Chrome, you can use Google's SafeSearch feature to filter explicit content from your search results. Here's how to do it:

**1. Open Google Chrome:**
- Launch the Google Chrome browser on your computer or mobile device.

**2. Go to Google Search Settings:**

- Click on the "Settings" link located at the bottom right corner of the Google search page. If you don't see this link, it might be hidden under the "Tools" menu; click the three vertical dots (menu icon) in the top right corner of the browser, then select "Settings" and find "Search engine" to access the "Search engine used in the address bar" section.

**3. Access Search Settings:**

- In the Settings menu, scroll down until you find the "Search settings" option. Click on it to access your search settings.

**4. Enable SafeSearch:**

- Look for the "SafeSearch filters" section on the Search settings page.

- To enable SafeSearch, click the "Turn on SafeSearch" option or the radio button labeled "Filter explicit results."

**5. Save Changes:**

- After enabling SafeSearch, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and click the "Save" button to save your changes.

**6. Confirm SafeSearch is Enabled:**

- To confirm that SafeSearch is enabled, perform a search in the Google search bar. You should notice that explicit content is filtered from your search results.

SafeSearch helps filter out explicit content from your search results, but it may not be 100% perfect, so exercise caution when browsing the web. If you want to lock SafeSearch settings and prevent others from changing them, you can set up Google's "SafeSearch Lock" feature, which requires a Google Account. This feature is especially useful for parents or administrators managing content for family or organization users.

Please note that SafeSearch settings only affect the search results within Google Search. They won't filter or block explicit content on websites or social media platforms directly. To filter content on websites or block explicit content entirely, you may need to use additional parental control or content filtering tools and software.
