How to Add Devices

  2. From the downloads page, you will install the Freedom application for your device.

  3. Once Freedom is installed, make sure to log into the Freedom app with your Freedom account email and password. The device will now appear on your dashboard under My Devices.

Note: After adding a new device to your account, for blocks to take effect on the device you also need to edit your existing block sessions to include the new device, or create a new session that includes it.

Instructions for installing on individual devices follow:

For mobile devices, you can also go directly to the iOS App Store or Google Play Store and find Freedom there.

Note: your device will automatically be assigned a name based on the device type (e.g. Mac, iPhone, etc.) You can edit the name of the device by clicking on the device name under My Devices and clicking the pencil icon.
