Straight answer first: there is no standalone Kahf Guard app for Windows or Mac. The app with Screen Time, App Blocker, and the tamper lock is built for phones. But a PC is still fully protectable — the filtering that powers Kahf Guard runs at the DNS level, and DNS works on any device, including a desktop. This page shows the two free methods and exactly what each one covers.
Is there a Kahf Guard app for PC?
No — Kahf Guard's app is iOS and Android only. For a PC, use one of two free routes: set KahfDNS on your Wi-Fi router so every device including the desktop is filtered, or install Kahf Browser on Windows and Mac for a filtered browsing experience. Most homes use both together.
You may see emulator guides that run the Android app on a PC through BlueStacks. Skip that. It's slower, it doesn't apply system-wide, and it isn't needed — DNS-level filtering already covers the whole machine without an emulator.
How to protect a PC with KahfDNS (router method)
Set your router's DNS to KahfDNS and every device on the Wi-Fi — the PC, phones, tablets, smart TVs — is filtered at once. Use the Strong hostname high.kahfguard.com, or the exact addresses shown in the Kahf Guard app under Settings → DNS Setup. It's free and takes a few minutes.
- Open your router settingsType your router address (often 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1) into a browser and sign in with the admin login.
- Find the DNS fieldLook under Internet, WAN, or DHCP settings for "DNS server."
- Enter the KahfDNS addressesUse the addresses for your chosen level — the Strong level is high.kahfguard.com. Open the Kahf Guard app on any phone, go to Settings → DNS Setup, and copy the exact addresses shown there.
- Save and restart the routerApply the change and reboot. Every device on the network, including your PC, now resolves through KahfDNS.
Kahf Browser for Windows and Mac
Kahf Browser is a free halal browser for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android. It blurs explicit images and blocks ads, trackers, and harmful sites inside the browser. Pair it with KahfDNS: the DNS filters the whole machine, and the browser adds a cleaner in-page experience on top.
DNS filtering and the browser solve different halves of the problem. DNS stops harmful domains from loading anywhere on the PC. Kahf Browser handles what happens inside pages you do visit — softening explicit imagery and stripping ads and trackers. Together they cover a desktop end to end.

One filter, the whole house
Setting the filter at the router protects everyone under the roof at once — the family desktop included — without asking each person to police their own screen. Remove the temptation from the path, then trust. That's the intent behind whole-home filtering.
