More About Bark for Chromebooks

Bark uses advanced algorithms to detect and proactively alert parents to issues your family faces online, such as bullying, predators, sexual content, and more. You can stay on top of your child's location using our real-time map or location check-in features. We also monitor social media and also block access to specific web sites and harmful categories while only alerting you to potential problems. Bark's approach saves parents valuable time and helps build trust between families.
Using our check-in feature, you can simply press a button to send your current location to your parent. This offers you peace of mind that your child has made it safely to their destination.

To do this, the Bark app will need access to photos/videos, contacts, the list of installed apps on the device, and browsing history. We use Accessibility to monitor your child's third-party message data.

Additionally, we use a VPN service to monitor your child's internet traffic for harmful content even when the app is not in use. Bark collects read and write call log data to enable contact monitoring even when the app is not in use

I think this app is bad because it invades your privacy and you can't joke around or be in group chats with anyone or watch whoever you want. I can't do anything without this app alerting me. It's so sensitive about what I do on the internet I just asked my friend a question and it alert my parents as cyberbullying 🙄. Even if you don't even do anything in a group chat it will alert you, sometimes the app alerts you for no reason.

If I could rate this 0 stars, I would. As a 13 year old, me and my friends curse alot, and this app thinks that I'm being bullied. I'm fine with letting my mom know where I am, but I am NOT okay with her knowing EVERYTHING that is on my phone: my Instagram feed, my Snapchat, my Tumblr. If a parent needs to use this app, it is evident that they have trust issues, and thats not that our problem as children. I personally have felt me and my mom have drifted apart since I was forced to get this app.

My mom is abusive and with forcing me to download this app she took away my support system because I can't talk about what she does with out it reporting to her that I'm talking about her. Note to parents: this will only make your kid lose all trust they might have had in you. I used to tell my mom everything but now that she's spying on my I barely tell her anything

No privacy whatsover. This is the perfect way for you to make your children hate you. It looks at everything on your phone, and it's not okay. Edit: May I elaborate: EVERYTHING I do is flagged by Bark. Everything. Fix your "algorithm" please.

This app is absolutely trash it tracks everything I do and I can't just joke around with my friends and my mom can block everything and gives me absolutely no freedom and when my friend texts me something that's about his private life my parents can see what I text so they know now. And it stalks me everywhere I go and gives me no privacy.

This app is such a waste of money and storage. I am a responsible kid with responsible friends and I never get in trouble. If I were to have a problem with social media that I couldn't handle I would get help. Not only had bark caused me to no longer trust my mom but it has caused us to have some problems. I no longer believe that my mom trusts me because of bark therefore I no longer really trust her. I highly recommend if you value your children's trust that you do not download this problem causing app.

Says I'm watching porn when my phone is powered off and I'm sleeping. Great. Job. Just magnificent. Almost punished for something I haven't done because of a retarded app. Also it has all my passwords and could sell all my information at anytime. I hope that all the people who work on bark lose all motor skills in the middle of highway 202.

Bark is terrible. Bark looks at everything in my phone.My texts, gallery,history, and even my location. My phone literally alerts me that this is dangerous for my phone numerous times. So it's not just me saying that it's dangerous. Bark, you'll probably read this. Please just kick us [me and my simbling] out of us paying the company for this. And it got my parent addicted to it, and I'm worried about them. Please 🙏.

Horrible. It blocks apps that aren't supposed to be blocked, i have no privacy whatsoever because the app can see your screen, track what you say, and see what apps/websites you've been on at all times. I feel like this shouldn't be legal because they are constantly tracking what I do.

I love how this app keeps me protected from any form of danger in virtual and ransom activities, but this app could use some improvement. I have to rely on my parents for everything, from installing apps to getting new contacts. I can't even call anyone without getting hung up on. Long story short, I appreciate the safety measures, but I hate how it invades my privacy and I can't installing apps.

i agree that it's important to protect your chilren online as they can be and are exposed to dangers but just because you use a "special algorithim" does not mean that there isn't an invasion of privacy. this app could be improved to let parents know when things are really wrong and also let kids keep their life to themselves. i think something to notify kids an alert has been sent and see it would be a slight improvement, not to be able to deny it though because the purpose would be defeated.

This app invades my privacy, my personal life. I can't even do the things I used to do with out it having it notifying my parents 24/7. I may of made some poor decisions in the past with my phone, but I am really not like that anymore. I believe this app breaks up relationships between teenagers and their parents, if a parent has an issue with their child it's best to talk to them not invade their personal life online.

I think it is good for social media, but personal text messages are a no no, my friends tell me personal stuff that is a secret. not necessarily bad things, just things they dont want people knowing, I think you should take that feature off. It is very personal things that people text each other and it makes me anxious to do anything on my phone anymore. I have only had this for 1 day and some things are inaccurate. This would be 0 stars. I feel like I'm being stalked and I dont wanna lose trust

I have this thing on my phone and I absolutely hate it but it does its job. All these other kids talk about "privacy" and how they have none bc of this app but it's only because they do stuff they know they shouldn't do. This app let's your parents see everything you do and it's Fair, they are your parents and they deserve to know what you're doing on ur phone. They can block and unblock your phone if your on too long and while it's annoying it's justified. So any kids who say bad stuff are dumb

This app is eating all my data. I was given the 4gb plan, and bark has used 80% with this app alone in 14 days, and I used 10% of it. It has been going through all my emails from school, all my apps, and flags even the most minor things.

This app is making things worse for kids. First of all, the app sends notifications to my parents whenever there is even a swear word, and it monitors EVERYTHING. That's not even a lie. It feels like I'm being stalked by someone I trusted my whole life. Now I don't want to talk to my mom. The app allows parents to completely invade a child's privacy by seeing texts, photos, search history, and more. This app just removes privacy from everything, now I don't even want to use my phone anymore.
