Frequently asked questions

What type of watch is the Bark Watch?

The Bark kid’s smart watch is a Schok Chronovolt CV16. We designed it with safety and durability in mind, providing features like GPS location tracking, contact management, and an emergency SOS button. With Bark’s built-in monitoring, parents get peace of mind while kids enjoy a bit of independence and connection. Plus, it’s water-resistant and has customizable watch faces, so kids can make it their own!

How is the Bark watch different from other kids’ smart watches?

The Bark Watch stands out from other watches because of our advanced content monitoring that comes built-in. Our software automatically scans texts, photos, and videos for dangers and sends you an alert if something concerning is found.

What does the Bark Watch come with?

The Bark Watch comes with a charging cord and block, along with a Bark Premium subscription for all of your family's devices.

How much does the Bark Watch cost?

The purchase price is $169 for the Bark Watch, plus $15/month for cell service and our parental controls.

Is the Bark Watch available outside the U.S.?

Right now, the Bark Watch for kids is only available for families located in the U.S.

Tell us what country you'd like us to bring the Bark Watch to next.

How does the SOS emergency feature work?

There’s a button on the watch that will allow your child to quickly contact you or 911 when you press it in certain orders.

Is it water-resistant?

The Bark Watch has an IP68 rating, which means it’s water-resistant in fresh water to a maximum depth of 1.5 meters for up to 30 minutes. It can stand up to splashes, handwashing, and even brief dips in water — but we don’t recommend wearing it while swimming.

Does the Bark Watch take photos and video?

It sure does! Your child can take photos and record videos and send them via text.

Will I have to download a special app to text my child with the Bark Watch?

Nope! We aim to make things easy with the Bark Watch — your family and friends can text them easily straight from their own phone.

Is the Bark Watch compatible with headphones?

Yes, the Bark Watch can connect to headphones via Bluetooth.

Can you have a Bark Watch and a Bark Phone with the same phone number?

Right now, every Bark Watch and Bark Phone have different phone numbers — there’s no sharing capability if you have both. 

We find nearly all families use the Bark Watch as a standalone device for kids that functions as a phone, allowing them to talk and text more safely while also letting parents track location.

Can I transfer over an existing phone number to the Bark Watch?

You sure can! Bark lets you transfer an existing number from another carrier — known as "porting" — at no additional cost! Check out this help article for step-by-step instructions.

What carrier does the Bark Watch use for cell service?

Data and coverage is provided by Bark.

Does a Bark Watch have to be connected to a Bark Phone to work?

Nope! The Bark Watch is a standalone device with its own phone number, talk & text, and other features. There's no need to purchase a Bark Phone when you’re buying the Bark Watch.

What is the Bark Watch return policy?

The Bark Watch has a 60-day satisfaction guarantee. For more information on returns, including damaged or defective watches, check out our help article.
