What Is Bark?

Bark is a comprehensive parental monitoring and management app that helps parents track their children’s digital activity across platforms like Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube, text messages, and emails.

Instead of reading every message, Bark uses advanced AI to detect signs of cyberbullying, depression, online predators, or explicit content — and instantly alerts you if something needs attention.

Personal experience.

As a parent, I always thought I had a good handle on what my kids were doing online. I’d check their phones occasionally, glance at their messages, and set screen time limits. But one day, I realized — I couldn’t truly keep up. The internet moves fast, and kids are even faster.

I heard about Bark from another parent at school who said it helped her catch signs of cyberbullying early. Skeptical but curious, I tried it. Within a week, Bark alerted me about a message my daughter received that no parent would ever want their child to see. It wasn’t extreme, but it was a wake-up call. Without Bark, I would’ve missed it completely.

What I appreciate most is how Bark respects privacy. It doesn’t show me every text or post — it just notifies me when something seems off: bullying, predators, depression, violence, or inappropriate content. It’s like having a quiet digital guardian watching over my kids.

Now, I don’t have to choose between trust and safety. Bark helps me have honest conversations with my kids about the online world instead of just policing it.

As parents, we can’t be everywhere — but with Bark, I feel like I’m doing everything I can to protect them without breaking their trust. It’s more than an app — it’s peace of mind. 💙

Love the alerts & recommendations from Bark. Surprisingly it's initiated some great convos with my kids and opened up line of communication on how we can navigate these issues together.

Bark Phone

I just got my son the Bark phone and so far I love it! The phone is cool, works great and the way I can customize it from my own phone is awesome! It monitors EVERYTHING. I'm so glad I got it versus getting an iPhone on our plan. There's so much that they can get away with in an iPhone!

Bark Watch

I got this watch for my daughter especially for her upcoming field trip with school so I could track her location. It was very easy to set up. She now loves calling grandma by herself using this watch and it's so cute. Also, the watch is very comfy to wear. She tried wearing it from morning til night and no complain. Great product. Highly recommend for parents with school aged kids.
