What’s new in version 1.3.3?
Bark for Chrome is installed on the child's Chrome browser to help protect the child against inappropriate content.
Bark detects messages containing cyberbullying, sexting, signs of depression or suicidal thoughts, and many others -- without you having to spend hours reading your child's messages.
Bark supports dozens of popular social media platforms, along with email, and text messaging.
Children spend an increasing amount of time socializing online. Unfortunately, new technology creates new risks. Parents need a smarter solution to help keep their children safe online without sifting through their social media feed or randomly grabbing their child's phone and scrolling through their messages.
You connect your children's accounts and we notify you if and when there's a potential issue. This approach helps to build trust and an open dialog with your family around internet safety.
Testimonials:
"My wife and i LOVE Bark - we’ve had some tough, but productive conversations with our 13 year old son. It’s proving to be extremely valuable." - Josh L.
"Bark alerted us to a social media post my daughter sent that implied she was not where she had said she was, and that she and her friends had illegal drugs in our vehicle that she drives. With this information we were able to ask her about the activities that night and to talk to her about the risks of having illegal drugs in the car even if the drugs belonged to a friend. Although it was a difficult conversation and there are issues still to address, I'm grateful Bark alerted us to the messages so we could take action." - Trent
"Bark notified me that my young daughter had unknowingly revealed her phone number to strangers on Twitter. The fact that bark.us notified me in realtime was impressive and led to an informative discussion with her the same day." - Jon B.
"We had a couple notifications come through and we were thankful for those. It opened up a dialog with our son which was great." - Nicci C.
"I wanted to say thank you. Bark is really providing me some peace of mind as a parent, and my kids appreciate the extra privacy I'm giving them." - Ray F.

Reviews of bark for chrome:
You may think that this is a petty review from a teenager who thinks they know everything, and you might be right. However, you could also be wrong. I barely had this app for a day, and my phone already doesn't work. It broke my whole phone down to where I couldn't even talk to my friends or text anyone without having to wait about 1 to 3 hours before having my message either being or not delivered. I also couldn't use the majority of my apps because they were stuck loading forever. It got so bad to where I am having to go to my computer to do things I should be able to do on my phone. Before I got bark, my phone was very responsive and fast, however after it was significantly slow. Their website claims that their app "only slows down internet speeds in minor ways". This is not true whatsoever. I should also add that setting up bark is an over-excessive pain. Their customer service was also unresponsive. They should not charge the amount that they do for a shabby app.
Ok so, my parents put Bark on my Chromebook and it really just made grow apart from my parents. I understand that this is just trying to keep me safe, but it will flag the stupidest little things ever! Also I can't go on any websites now like Amazon. It's so dumb! Now I'm just afraid to talk to my friends because my parents can see every little thing that is flagged. Also if I'm on a group chat with one person that I don't have saved in my contacts it flags it, I might have just not saved them, this app/extension is also making my Chromebook work way slower. This gives me ZERO PRIVACY with my parents, like some things I just DON'T want to share with them. I don't feel ok with my parents looking at everything I search/watch/post. It also can see what you search in incognito mode. I'm not so sure I'm right about this but... I don't think it matters what device you're on, as long as you linked the account you're using right then, it can flag what you see. Thank you for reading this, have a great day/night.
To be honest, this app isn't as horrible as people in the reviews say. I've never experienced any kind of hack or glitch that was caused by this, and i've had this for about 6-7 years tops. I do believe that this app isn't the best, though. It's good when you write down the idea on a sheet of paper, but the app is not a very good program in general.The app is trigger happy, and most people feel like they don't have privacy from using it on personal devices. I do want to say, I've never felt any disruption in my privacy, since this was never used on any of my personal devices. I do think that some problems with this app could be fixed easily, though, but I'm not absolutely sure they can work or be coded easily. But one big thing about this app that I despise... THE REVIEWS. I do think that a couple of 1 star reviews are actually reliable, but any other reviews don't feel helpful in any kind of way. Some of these reviews are kids whining about "ME PARENTS WATCH AND ME NO LIKE THAT' or "APP GAVE ME VIRUS DON'T DOWNLOAD," but to be honest, those reviews are getting annoying, since I have gotten no kind of virus out of using this program, and I haven't made my parents breathe down my neck just to see what I'm looking up. (I'm not a saint, btw.) If people did get a virus, It might have not been bark that's been the source of the virus. I've also seen people complain about "SCHOOL DOWNLOAD THIS AND ME NO LIKE" I mean, the school devices are still school property... They don't want you to look up anything that's suggestive. Overall, I think this app is survivable, but could use some changes.
