App broken doesn’t work -

I've been an app customer since 2016 I've been an app customer since 2016. Wonderful, responsive, helpful company. I recently purchased the Bark Phone and it truly is the best first phone for kids. It was hard to not go with an old Apple phone, but I chose safety and I don't regret it.

Spyware stole my kids data -

Scam charges I returned the phones as requested by bark company to terminate services. The service was very glitchy and insufficient and over priced. After returning phones that were in good shape no scratches no damage nothing....bark emailed stating ill be charged 59.00 for repairs. There was no details regarding their fake allegations just a statement that I'll be charged. I immediately reached out to customer service they wanted details from me to understand why I felt I shouldn't be charged but could not come up with an itemized list of they fake alleged damages yo the phones. They did not respond to me after that but proceeded to try an charge my bank. SCAM ALERT!

I purchased and installed Bark parental… I purchased and installed Bark parental controls for my pre-teen and have had nothing but issues with it. Half the time the app fails to monitor and report in with zero tampering by my child. Their iOS monitoring is a joke as it requires the computer monitoring the device to be connected to the same wireless network for any of the features to work. Children can too easily circumvent monitoring by making minor changes to phone settings outside of Bark. I canceled my annual subscription after only 3 months and they said the service wouldn't re-bill on the 1 year anniversary, but made ZERO offers to give a prorated refund. This app and it's company are a waste of time and money and do NOT keep my child any safer than leaving the phone wide open. It gives the parents a FALSE sense of security at best. If you truly want to keep your children safe, DO NOT PURCHASE THIS SERVICE
