First-Time Activation of In-Home Filtering

In-home web filtering refers to our website and app blocking features that you can deploy to any internet-connected device in your home with the help of a piece of hardware — the Bark Home or a router with Bark built-in.

For more information on the first-time setup, choose the hardware you are looking to set up:

Already set up your hardware?

Then check out these guides for help managing your rules for your in-home devices:

• Profiles
• Identifying Devices
• Schedules

Unsure which to choose?

You do not need both, just one of the above options to take advantage of our in-home filtering features. If you have not yet decided which piece of hardware to purchase, learn a bit more below:

• The Bark Home™ is a little box that you plug into your existing router that allows you to take advantage of our in-home filtering features. 
• Some routers have embedded our Bark software directly into their router firmware, which allows you to take advantage of our in-home filtering features.
