It comes after access was limited in February by Pornhub
Pornhub is set to become accessible again for some users in the UK, as per the adult site’s parent company Aylo.
In February this year, Pornhub restricted the UK from access to its website after citing the tougher age checks which have been introduced for explicit sites.
From that moment, only people who had previously made a Pornhub account were able to access its content.
This comes after the Online Safety Act brought in measures that stopped people in the UK being able to access the adult site Pornhub without putting in age verification back in 2025.
Now, people using apple devices who have already verified their age with the latest iOS will be able to access the site again.

This is due to the latest update introducing age checks for UK iPhone users.
Aylo have previously said that the best way to make sure only appropriate audiences have access to adult content is through device-level verification.
“With the release of iOS 26.4 Apple has introduced the world’s first ever device-based age verification solution for its users in the UK, a major first step towards a global solution that stands to better protect children everywhere,” said Alex Kekesi, head of community and brand at Aylo.
“As a result, today Aylo welcomes eligible age-confirmed UK iOS users back to Pornhub.”
As reported by the BBC, Keksi said that Aylo had contacted regulator Ofcom about how to comply with the UK’s age verification rules.
Will Ofcom said it will “carefully scrutinise these changes” it emphasised that responsibility to prevent children accessing porn in the UK “falls firmly on sites and apps”.
