Bark for Chromebooks v6.79.0
Bark Technologies, Inc.About this app
Developer Description
The Bark app specifically made to monitor a child's Chromebook
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 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
Pretty good. Doesn't flag shows like Murder drones bc of the word murder, I will say it doesn't work great a with messenger kids but I barely use that. Some VPN settings don't allow me among us online unless my dad disables that, preventing web safe searching. I will say, it's annoying bc of on my tablet I can't even open settings without bark getting mad, for some reason. Listen, kids, I understand that it's frustrating and feels like someone is watching, but it protects you from porn and such.
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.
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
