How to Turn off Safe Mode on Tumblr

Tumblr is a famous social networking website founded in 2007. It enables users to post their content and media in the form of blog posts. Users are allowed to follow each other’s blogs. Moreover, they can also comment or send messages to the blogs they have followed.

What is Tumblr Safe Mode?

As the name implies, the Safe Mode in Tumblr restricts all the sensitive posts to appear on your dashboard. It means that you will not be able to see the sensitive content on your Tumblr dashboard if you have the Safe Mode on and in some cases it can prevent certain images from loading. This also shows the “this Tumblr may contain sensitive media” error while opening some posts. Moreover, Tumblr does not allow its under 18 users to disable the Safe Mode in any way. However, many mature Tumblr users do not seem to like this feature and hence they want to disable it in order to enjoy everything on their dashboard. So let us have a look at how we can get this done.

Note: You will only be able to turn off Safe Mode if you are above 18.
