When things get hectic around your house, you can pause the internet anytime so your kid can take a breather. Who knows — you might even want to join them.

Decide which screen time rules apply when it’s time for bed. This can look like no internet at all or maybe just apps that will help them wind down.

Turn off access to apps and games with the tap of a button, whether it’s Netflix on a TV, Fortnite on a PlayStation, or YouTube on a laptop.

You can allow or block specific websites — or choose from 18 different categories like streaming services, online gaming, sexual content, and more.

What Parents Are Saying

Giving me peace

“Bark Home was so easy to install. In fact the installation directions are on one page. Once you get it hooked up you go to a website and finish it up. I have it paired with my Bark Monitoring and I am no longer worried about what my daughter is doing online.”

–Jennifer H.
Better than any of its competitors

“We went through them all: Circle, Gryphon, etc. Bark Home was the strongest option available.”

–Matthew V.
Like a dream come true

“Bark Home is the solution so many parents need. It can be set up easily and is written in normal (not tech) language for the average parent to get set up and get on with other things. It is the perfect complement to BARKs already superior mobile device monitoring system.”

–Dolly D.
Very happy with Bark

“We were already using BARK on my daughter’s phone. With this new Bark Home, we were able to cover her computer and my son’s computer. It did not slow down our wi-fi and after getting the settings and exceptions figured out, it’s working great.”

–Diana K.
Great expanded coverage to Bark subscription

“Great addition to Bark Parental Controls. It expands my Bark subscription parental controls to all devices connected to my home network and even alerts me when a new device connects to my network. Finally, I can control the school issued devices (on my home network) and Smart TVs.”

–S. H.
