How to turn off tumblr safe mode for iphone? - Natasha - 04-08-2014 06:18 PM

Is there a way to turn off the safe mode on tumblr for iPhones? I know there is an option for android but how do I turn it off for iPhones?

When you try to open a link pointing to a tag that mostly leads to adult contents, or a blog flagged as adult, then you may receive no search results at all or may not be able to open the blog if you are not logged in, or if you are logged in but have Safe Mode enabled.

This means basically that your only chance of accessing adult blogs on Tumblr, and adult is used widely here as it may include educational blogs for example, is to use a Tumblr account with Safe Mode disabled. In other words, if you do not have a Tumblr account, you cannot access adult contents anymore on the site.

Disabling Safe Mode

Tumblr safe mode

To turn off Safe Mode, open the Tumblr Dashboard by following the link directly, or by opening the settings and then Dashboard after signing in manually on the site.

Locate the "Browse tag pages in Safe Mode" and uncheck the option. Click the save button afterwards and you should be able to access NSFW and adult blogs and tag pages again on Tumblr.

While it only mentions NSFW blogs, it enables access to both NSFW and adult blogs.
