What it really is

ClearPlay — subscription Chrome extension that auto-skips/mutes explicit content on major streaming services.

Our take

ClearPlay is a paid subscription service (not free as the DB lists) that installs as a Chrome extension and silently filters language, violence, and sexual content across Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, Disney+, and Max. Families configure filter granularity per category, and the extension handles the rest mid-stream. The DB 'pricing: Free' field is a mislabel — the service costs $7.99/month or $79.99/year after a 30-day free trial.

Why we rate it

Rare combination of breadth (five major platforms) and depth (sub-category violence filters) makes it the most configurable family-safe streaming filter available as a simple browser extension.

The catch

Chrome-only extension (no Firefox or Safari); smart TV support limited to LG and Samsung built-in browsers; filter library is editor-curated, so newer releases may lag.

Best for
Families with children who stream on Netflix, Disney+, or Prime Video
Parents wanting set-it-and-forget-it filtering without monitoring every session
Households where some members prefer clean viewing without manual skipping
Not good for
Non-Chrome browser users (Firefox, Safari, Edge on non-Chromium)
Viewers on streaming services outside the five supported platforms
Anyone needing smart TV app-level filtering beyond LG/Samsung browsers
Friction report
Time to value
Fast: install extension, create account, start trial, and filters apply on the next stream within minutes.
Scale breakpoint
Single household subscription with no multi-profile or tiered family pricing — one plan covers the whole household.
Walled garden
Moderate: filter preferences live in ClearPlay's ecosystem; switching means reconfiguring category preferences from scratch elsewhere.
