Can Bark be bypassed?

Yes, but only on iOS, which can be uninstalled without parent consent. For Android, Bark generates a device code, which is required before deleting the app. For both OSs, the code is also needed to make changes in the settings on the Bark app and the settings on your kid’s phone. The device code changes every 5 minutes, which is how long you have until the system automatically re-locks all protected features once the 1 code is used. Your child may be able to try and get around web filtering and app blocking by installing a VPN or a proxy to override Bark’s VPN. To prevent this, I recommend disallowing “unidentifiable traffic” from the parent’s dashboard.

Can my child delete the Bark app?

Yes, but only on iOS. On Android, this is only possible if they gain access to the device code, which can be found in the parent app. If your kid does manage to remove the app, you’ll get an alert. When I uninstalled the Bark for Kids app from my Android test device, it disabled the website and app filtering, screen time management, and monitoring of text messages, photos, and videos, but Bark kept monitoring activity on accounts I had connected through the dashboard.

Does Bark monitor deleted texts?

Yes, Bark may monitor some deleted texts. It doesn’t keep a list of every deleted message, but Bark can alert you if it finds something worrying in deleted texts. Barks says there’s a better chance of this happening on Android because there are fewer restrictions, so if your kid has an Android, Bark can check deleted messages more effectively than on an iPhone. Bark also prevents your kid from deleting texts, but only if they’re using a Bark Phone .

What does Bark monitor?

Bark monitors 30+ social media services and various data on your kid’s device, including text messages, photos, and videos. It monitors your child’s activity at the account level and will alert you of potential issues regardless of what device your child is using, even without installing the app.

Can Bark track my child’s location?

Yes, you can track your child’s location with Bark . Bark lets you see where your kid is in real time, how long they were at a certain location, and the places they’ve visited in the last 7 days. Bark also allows parents to request a check-in from their child, which then requires the child to open the app and respond. You can also create a list of addresses, set geofenced zones, and receive an alert any time your child arrives at or leaves one of these locations.

What devices can Bark monitor?

Bark has monitoring apps for Android, iOS, and Chromebooks. Monitoring iOS devices works a little differently and requires a few extra steps to get set up , but Bark provides step-by-step guides to help you get started. Bark also has browser extensions for Chrome and Edge that allow you to monitor desktop devices.

Will Bark slow down my child’s device?

Any parental control or monitoring app can slow your device a bit, but it should never be significant. During my tests, I never noticed Bark slowing down my computer or my child’s devices.

Does Bark collect your data?

Yes, Bark collects some data, but only what’s needed to provide its services and keep users safe. It gathers things like IP addresses, browser details, and device info when you visit the site. If you connect through a mobile device, it may collect some additional data. Bark may also pull limited info from social media or email accounts for monitoring, but its privacy policy says it never sells or shares your data with third parties. It uses encryption and follows strict privacy laws like COPPA and FERPA to keep everything secure.
