XXXChurch.com Releases Mobile App for Recovering Porn Addicts
XXXChurch.com has released a mobile version of a software program that helps recovering porn addicts stay accountable.
The release of the X3watch app for the iPhone, iPad and Android was announced Tuesday by the community-based website, founded by "Porn Pastor" Craig Gross.
"Unlike filters that just block specific websites all together, X3watch was intentionally designed to give users the freedom and power to show their friends, parents and spouses that they can be held accountable and make good choices," said Gross, who founded XXXChurch.com in 2002 after noticing that pornography was a common struggle and addiction among many young people.
"For people frequently tempted by the accessibility of Internet porn, this app is a great tool to keep them in check and focused on who their habit may be hurting," he added.
Like the original X3watch software program, the X3watch app works by recording the name of any questionable websites that a user visits, as well as the date and time the site was accessed. The program then sends an automated e-mail report of any questionable browsing history to a person listed as an "accountability partner."
"As our society becomes increasingly dependent upon mobile phones and technology, accessing Internet porn becomes all the more effortless," reported Gross.
"Porn has truly gone mobile and we want to help people be accountable on any communication device they are using," he added.
Currently, the mobile app can be downloaded for free from the iTunes App Store, or for $4.99 in the Android Market.
The original computer program, to date, has been downloaded over a million times from XXXChurch.com, with around 500 to 700 downloads a day.
Both are designed for those who may be recovering from or struggling with an addiction to Internet pornography.
