How Bark Works
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- Built by parents for parents, Bark is a parental control app that helps you stay on top of all the devices and apps your kids use daily by helping you manage every aspect of their online world. Bark runs in the background, scans your child’s online activities, and sends you an alert if it detects something you need to know about - issues like predators, sexual content, bullying, depression, and more.
Bark parental controls help families manage and protect their children’s digital lives. Our award-winning parental control app monitors 30+ of the most popular apps and social media platforms for signs of issues like cyberbullying, suicidal ideation, online predators, threats of violence, and more. In addition, our website blocking and screen time app empower families to set healthy limits around the websites and apps their kids can access and when they can visit them.

And this is why the next generation is gonna have extreme trust issues

amen brother
Yep, this did that to me
How? lol you guys are just pissed and triggered.
My parents got me one of these. This is my last day having an actual phone. Hope y’all have a good life because mines over.
Hi there, it sounds like you are really hurting right now from something going on in your life. 💔 Please speak with your parents, school counselor, medical professional, or other trusted adults. Crisistextline.org or 988lifeline.org is also available. Your life is important and there IS help available and people that CARE about YOU! 💙
@@BarkTechnologiesyou do realize it’s your fault right?
Yeah Fr bark is hurting teens who just want some independence and don’t want their parents being in there business all the time 24/7
@@BarkTechnologies screw you!
@@BarkTechnologieswe don’t talk to people for a reason WE DONT TRUST THEM
This is lowkey a nice way to 1. make your kids more sneaky and 2. break every bit of trust with your child... i mean you guys are going as far as to see what apps and photos they take and download ?? like your basically on your childs phone with them. this is a horrible way to monitor you kids, and if a parent needs to get this for there child, just dont get them a phone.
Hi there! Our mission is to help keep kids safer, while still giving them privacy by never showing all of their data to their parents! Parents are only alerted to potential concerns. 💙
@@BarkTechnologies thats not what your video presents, 'monitor every aspect of your childs digital lives' .. "EVERY ASPECT" this isnt okay at all, this is just a way to make kids bottle up there feelings and learn to be more sneaky. This isnt a very good app..
@@BarkTechnologies "monitors your childs text, photos, and videos" thats living there digital lives with them its not a good app at all again.
@@BarkTechnologies Bullshit. A picture of me holding a nerf gun got flagged for “violence” fix your app
@@Pwainfullz Yeah! They also say that Oh”as a parent it’s important that you have a way to monitor them as way to help them with emotional and pushback helath” but honestly, I feel like my realtionship with my parents has gone down, it creeps me out knowing that literally EVERYTHING I DO AND SAY is monitor “for my safety” it’s litterly just like in the book 1984 how the government or one sole company knows everything you do and say, and that’s what this app does, except only on online life, and the whole point the author wrote that book was to WARN people about this type of behavior, and that’s why I was forced to read it. But this app does exactly what my parents warnede about and it’s all under the pretext of”safety” this app is bull, it’s so stupid. Thanks for ruining my relationship with my parents bark
As a teen right now, this is HORRIBLE AND I HATE IT!! As a future parent though, (10 years into the future) I LOVE IT!! WHEN IS IT COMING TO CANADA?!?! I WILL NEEED THIS IN ABOUT 15 YEARS TIME
Hey there! You don't have to hate Bark as a teen! Lol! Some teens worry that by allowing Bark to monitor their online accounts, parents will be snooping on all of their conversations. In reality, parents turn to Bark to avoid doing exactly that. Spot-checking devices every night or week is time-consuming and invasive. The beauty of Bark is that it only alerts parents to potential issues. Checking alerts from Bark means that parents don’t have to scour every text, email, or post - which gives teens more privacy, not less! Bark is currently only available in the United States, South Africa, and Australia. We don't have a timeframe when/if Bark is going to be available in Canada, but any updates are sure to be posted on our blog at www.bark.us/blog :) We totally appreciate your support. Have a great weekend!
@@BarkTechnologies Yeah, which is why I said I would need this in 15 years time because I’ll be about 30, which that’s when I want to be a parent. However right now I don’t want my parents finding out about it 😅
@@BarkTechnologiesI think it would be nice to buy it for a first time device for your kid so that way he would never think something’s wrong.
i love how they use words like "middle schooler" "3rd grader" and "12 year old" and my parents are using this for me and im 16 -_- like im sure this is a great program for young kids who have internet access but not for a 16 year old who is suppose to branching out from childhood and parents and into my own life that i dont want to be able to be shared anytime with my parents
We know these years are tough! We hope that you have a discussion with your parents about your concerns, & what your family agrees is an appropriate & safe use of technology & the internet. 💜
You're still a child, a dependent of your parents 🤦♀️
@@cleobartdippy wwaaaaaah waaaaaah
@@mousevrat5086 that's exactly why they still use it.
@@cleobartdippyyes, but as children grow, there is the expectation that parents should gradually and slowly “ween” them into more independence and adult responsibilities. Otherwise, when they’re 18, they’re not going to be prepared whatsoever for the real world if they’re under constant scrutiny and have all their actions controlled by their parents. If the phone is owned by the parent then yes, they have the right to install whatever they want though because it was bought with their money and is a condition of the phone. Still, parents should raise their kids themselves not with more technology on top of the phone.
Instead of using an app that detaches you from your child and removes the love behind talking face to face, you really should genuinely bring them for a sit down instead of having a companies app do it for you.
omg i just thought of this really cool idea, it’s called interacting with your kids and spending time with them so they don’t need to spend so much time on their phones? maybe even trying this thing called “communication” so your kids can trust you enough to talk to you if they’re concerned about something!! this way you don’t raise sneaky kids who don’t trust their parents because their parents are tracking their every move..just a thought though!!
literally this is just so saddening that they see this as a good thing at all, like i understand the location thing but with this there is NO PRIVACY its not so hard to just sit with your child and talk to them give them the opening to speak to you when they feel comfortable and so they have time to gain the courage and prepare if they want to discuss something with you, like why tf do parents have to monitor it, if you cant trust your kid that much then why get them a device IN THE FIRST PLACE
Trust from parents is earned, it's not just given. If you're a minor, you're also still a dependent of your parents who are more than likely the ones paying for the phone that you are using which makes it their property. Privacy is a privilege, idk if you have done anything to create any distrust with your parents but I can assure you that this is for your protection and not to be nosey.
@@cleobartdippy”privacy isn’t a privelage”. Public bathrooms:
@@cleobartdippymost boomer thing i have ever heard
My parents are planning to put this on my phone and I already had this thing called netgear on my phone to “limit” the amount of time I’m on my phone. Well that already tore my family apart because my step dad went over kill I told my mom they got into an argument for like 4 hours, I cried and after 2 YEARS of hard work to get that stupid thing off they are just gonna raise the stakes and lock half of my life away once again and I highly doubt that anything like or worse than netgear is gonna “bring my family together” so yeah.

@@BarkTechnologiesno it was not lmao
STFU IT IS
i'm a kid with this app (not really anywhere near as young as portrayed) and it has just made me sneakier in doing things. another situation that i have had is when i hide something (by moving my phone or tilting it) and they immediately try to look. i was hiding it because i thought it was bad, when it wasnt. this only reinforces no trust and makes me sad that parents would even try to use this.

this is an amazing way to ensure you as a parent die alone in a nursing home. its so invasive and we need privacy on what we do online, you cant expect children to be content with a app that alerts your parents if you say something like "homework is killing me" the app takes that too literally.
Do you pay for your cell phone or are you under your parents plan and they pay for it?
@@cleobartdippyjust say youre nosy and noone liked you as a kid
literally!!! and like.. i genuinely couldn't care less if my parents go through my phone. but just tell me! like... they pay for it whatever i don't care go through it all you want cause it's technically your property but just let me know if you're going to or do it with me so i can explain
My phone is currently being helped 98 miles away from me with my mom so she can go through all of my data and photos and apps and install bark. Now she can go through my phone and give me zero privacy! Thanks bark! 😊

@@BarkTechnologieshere’s the thing if I were to talk to my parents and say I don’t want the app on my phone because it’s invading my privacy they would straight up tell me no and to bad. This app is terrible. If anything it’s making people more sneakier and is ruining there trust in there parents and making them not wanna talk to there parents about anything. Even if bark doesn’t show all data it still is showing some things that aren’t necessary to show. I’ve seen multiple comments saying how they took a picture of a leaf or a car and it sent an alert to there parents as sexual content. If that were to alert my parents they would take my phone go through absolutely everything and then take it away. I get maybe for super young kids but people who are older don’t need this. On top of everything im sure this app is gonna make kids mental health even worse.
When your 17 and have parent controls and your parent say when ur 18 u will still have it 😢
Sorry strict parents. But that’s not legal
I don’t like this, I think that kids deserve some privacy on the internet we’re all human and we shouldn’t have to have our data looked at by by some big company that doesn’t actually care about us and is most likely just in it for the money.
Hi! We're sorry you feel this way. Our advanced analysis engine enables us to help keep children safer online without requiring parents to spend countless hours reading every social interaction their child has. This approach allows parents to build trust and an open line of communication with their child. Kids are generally very receptive to Bark because we are able to help protect them online WITHOUT a parent having to invade their privacy. We do not show parents all of their children's online activities; we ONLY alert parents if something possibly concerning is found so that they may address it if needed. We highly encourage families to have open discussions about online safety, how using Bark helps, and to engender trust with their children by giving them appropriate privacy online. 😃 info.bark.us/talk
@@BarkTechnologies I am personally a huge advocate for online safety and I can appreciate the effort you have made to try to keep bark safe. I get that you can protect kids without showing parents everything, but what about all the false positives but what I’m more concerned about is the fact the you are syncing kids phones data into your server even if it’s encrypted it’s still there at some point for review which seems like a bad idea to me especially with the younger more vulnerable audience that bark has which is mainly minors who might not know what is happening to their data and with all of the bad actors out there today is bark really safe?
P.S. This is just my opinion it’s ok if you disagree.
You don’t have kids do you
@@floridaman727 Bruh look at my channel lol
Children under the age of 18 have NO expectation of privacy. The Judge will explain that to you after your kid bullies some kid and he kills himself…..it’s called being a parent and not their friend.
Tysm for wrecking my relationship with my parents and breaking me and my sisters phone
worst app ever
One time I screenshotted a shirt I thought was funny or whatever, it literally said “eating disorder? Nahh I’m eating dis order” but with a really goofy looking emoji. That triggered the bark thing, this app is a joke 😭
The one thing I’m concerned about bark is if it’s going to send an alert every time there’s a cuss word on text, social media, etc.
Hi there! You can adjust the sensitivity of alerts for each category though! Here are the steps:

“Privacy is so important” I would rather come to my parents about my mental health then them reading my online diary about how I feel about them, this app is going intoo all pur private life, kids like my age would be able to trust our parents and go to them for help, I feel like this is smart idea but just is killing us kids and ruining our teen years. :( like I never had friends or anything
Hi there! We completely agree, it would be much better if kids went to their parents when they're struggling with something. However, kids sometimes don't feel comfortable doing this and feel they have to deal with it on their own. Bark helps parents be there for their kids when they're needed most and when kids have trouble asking for help. But Bark values children's privacy, which is why we only alert for concerning content (like cyberbullying, sexual content, predation, suicide/self-harm content, etc.). Parents don't have full, unfettered access to their child's online world, giving them more privacy, not less. 🧡

@@BarkTechnologiesin reality, i ended up with quite the opposite effect
@@BarkTechnologies how does alerting parents to things children do give them more privacy
@@BarkTechnologies bro ur app is shit and it robs the child of privacy.
@@BarkTechnologieswhat trust? No we are all curious what trust your trying to offer, this app BREAKS, trust
Omg!! I just had an idea that could probably change the future as we know it!! It's called sitting next to your child while they're online
my mom said "If you want to get a web browser you have to do chores for it" LIKE BRO A FRICKEN WEB BROWSER???
This is the reason we don’t talk to our parents and just talk to trusted friends 💀
ruining my mental health and my trust. i’m not even a kid. I CANT HAVE ANY PRIVACY WHAT THE HELL!?!? I’m 16 years old I don’t need my parents over my shoulder like i’m a little kid. I am mature and don’t need this app. MY 18 YEAR OLD BROTHER IS GETTING THIS APP. HES 18
ISN'T THAT LITERALLY ILLEGAL HE'S A LEGAL ADULT WTFFFF
my rating is prob 5/10
good intentions but it’s very sensitive, it says it only alerts when they see something very dangerous, but my mom gets like 3 notifications a days or smth for “violence” bc I watch minecraft PvP videos and according to bark all the the titles symbolize “violence” so it’s honestly very sensitive i think it should only notify when it senses something that’s actually dangerous
Edit: also sometimes it gives me an option to hide images and to tell a trusted adult bc it thinks it’s inappropriate. one of these photos was a minecraft sword that looked like a walrus that my friend sent me for my texture pack. another time i sent someone a photo of a netherite chestplate in minecraft that in the texture pack was retextured to just be a recolored diamond, iron, or gold chestplate, and it said that was innapropriate. so ye I think it should pay more attention to photos before automatically saying that
Edit 2: also forgot to mention that i actually really like the logo (dogs are my second favorite animal after cats)
Edit 3: also according to a comment i saw it gives a notification for the skull emoji? that’s actually something I would put a skull emoji for💀
Your parents can adjust the alerts sensitivity if they would like. 💙
@@BarkTechnologies ok thx, have a great day or night
Moms are on a whole new level
i get what you're trying to do with the alerts and whatever and how it only shows the parents something if there is an alert, but as someone who has had it for a week or so it alerts so much stuff... like my parents just got rid of the spotify monitoring because it flagged all my music. the main issue with this is that every family has different views on what their kid gets to see. my family for example doesn't care if i listen to music or watch videos with sexual content or sexual jokes. and profanity? my parents really don't care if i swear around them but this app alerts them about everything. the app is overall very invasive in my opinion and my parents only got it for the screen time aspect which is confusing and difficult to set up, just like the rest of the app. i have no problem with my parents going through my phone. they pay for it, and im lucky to have one at all. i just want to know when they do rather than having them do it virtually through an app, which is difficult when you have divorced parents. my biggest criticism with this app is that it alerts miniscule unimportant things, giving my parents access to my stuff without telling me.

If my mum downloads this on my device I’m *deleting it.* :3
honestly this app is bullsh and only bullsh. im 13 and this is horrible. you npcs say this is supposed to “bring families closer” but all this is gonna do is rip them apart and make them not trust each other and hate each other. and this is EXACTLY why the next generation is gonna have trust issues as well. this just makes kids sneakier with things. this only adds less trust and makes me just sad that my mom would want to use this. because if she doesn’t trust me then i won’t trust her. idc if she says “its so i can’t get away with doing bad things or getting in trouble and she’s just trying to protect me for my own good.” i don’t get why she thinks im not smart enough to take care of things like that by myself. and its stupid how it alerts her if i do ANYTHING “concerning” or “bad.” honestly this is just going to slowly take away every bit of trust from me. i mean what if the kid already has depression or any issues like that? i mean ya’ll seriously are going to “monitor” if we download some app or take a photo or download something? seriously? this app is so invasive, sure some of the people that use this are teens like me, but everyone needs their own privacy especially when it comes to what we do or say online. because some kids use this to get away from reality and the fact that their parents will be using this app is just ruining that too. like it’s seriously going to alert them if you say “this homework is killing me?” or something like that? this dumb app takes things way too literally and it’s not that big of a deal. we all as humans need privacy and don’t need our data to be looked at my some company and then alerted to our parents. they don’t even care and are probably just doing it for the money. but you wanna know an even better idea for parents? how about just spend time with them and use “communication” with your kids? then you won’t lose their trust so much. doesn’t it sound so much better? this is so your kids won’t lose so much trust in you and so you won’t raise such sneaky kids! so just stop tracking their every move and just spend time with them and talk to them.

Does this app look at anything if it’s not connected to any accounts
All the children saying they want to be sneakier because of this app, are the most deserving of this app.
I HATE THE APP WITH ALL MY HEART IT JUST PURELY SUCKS PLEASE JUST DELETE THE APP

@@BarkTechnologiesactual npc ur literally just got insulted💀
@@emp.junctionyou shouldve backed up your phone begore they download the app, and then when they download the app, u restore the backup from a week ago when u didnt have the app
I love how the girl in the ad sounds so uninterested
I don’t even talk to my parents cause of this
cry
…I feel so out of control I have no power over my rights anymore
I am actually tweaking
Okay I understand for kids portrayed in the video, fifteen and younger BUT I am SEVENTEEN and my mother just ordered this. I WILL BE EIGHTEEN IN SEVEN MONTHS.
Hey there! We encourage you to share your thoughts with your mother & have an open and honest discussion with her about how you are feeling about Bark. 💚
Lmao what is thisss 😭 HELP let the kids have privacy
Hey there! Bark was actually created as a collaboration between parents and kids to allow for open talks, guidance, and adjustments as kids grow and learn how to better safeguard themselves in concerning situations. We alert to potential issues, include only a snippet of the concern (parents don't have access to all activities), and recommended actions on how to handle the situation. 💜 info.bark.us/how
My parents used to have this but it gave my tablet a virus
💀
yeah ill be back for this app when im a parent lmao
Why would they wanna get involved anyway
Nobody likes this app
Its an invasion of privacy💀💀💀
Our mission is keep kids safe online, without showing all of their data to their parents! We only alert to potentially concerning content. We hope you can have a conversation with your parents about your concerns and agree on safe, healthy tech rules together. 🧡
We love Bark, we have it on our 11 year olds phone and it is so wonderful!
Recently she disabled the app and my husband and me both got notifications very quick, we went to our daughter immediately and found out that she had disabled it because she wanted to watch episodes of south park and family guy aswell as many pg_13 rated movies, nope!
Luckily my husband and me got there before she could see anything innapropriate.
We are so grateful to bark for protecting our little girl from online dangers and protecting her innocence from innapropriate content.
We love bark!
So glad to hear how Bark has helped your family! If you ever need any assistance, please don't hesitate to reach us at bark.us/contact. 🧡
This makes me sick
Ok, first off I think bark is a little harsh on an 11 year old girl. Just put that on those stupid middle schoolers who think they know “adult things” but they really don’t. But It definitely depends on how she acts. Does she act grown? Or does she act like a normal kid? Either way, she shouldn’t really be watching South Park, even if she’s gen alpha. That’s gonna make the brain rot worse. Also, I watched it at the age of 13. And it didn’t change anything. And family guy isn’t too bad, definitely a bit calmer than South Park, I myself watched it at 11, just avoid some episodes…. I am an older teen, and my mom has bark. But, she’s gonna remove it soon. If she does act grown then keep using bark cause that shit will make your daughter better. And a bit worse than SP and FG, I watched Happy tree friends, at seven. It has g0r3 in it but hey, I was mature at 7, and years later I still watch it and nothing changed.
guys im pretty sure this person is a bot they created their account 6 months ago and have 24 comments on this channel
@@CalebthegiganticMariofan I'm not a bot, I'm a loving mother who wants to protect her little girls innocence!
I swear no parent should install this for any kid over 12
This is fantastic. I was looking for a service that would monitor texts as well because my son tends to get bullied.
We're happy to help if you need us! 💚

This isn’t gonna help lady, this app is so dang frustrating and I hate it with a burning passion it is just extremely stressful and insanely annoying for the kid that has it I can’t wait to be 18 and finally get rid of this hellosh app off my phone
Please dont use this app its an invasion of privacy for your child
You need to get actual help then this app
yes, I need this app for my child how do I get it for Canada 🥰
Right now, we only support users in the U.S., Australia, and in South Africa. But we're continually working to extend our services to users in other countries in the future. 💚
just make sure you have a good relationship with them and don't "stalk" them with the app and have some trust if possible
It should not monitor child’s text messages. Or photos. Invasion of privacy.
At Bark, we believe that kids deserve a healthy level of privacy. That's why we do not give parents full, unfettered access to their child's online world. We only alert them to concerning content such as bullying, sexual content, predation, etc. Our hope is that this builds trust and open communication between parents and kids! 🧡
