Manage Browsing on the Bark Phone

Block or allow browser apps

From your dashboard:

  • On the new UI, tap your child's name and then the bark_phone.svg phone icon under your child's active routine.
  • On the classic UI, tap the Bark Phone tile and then Browser.

When the browser is blocked...

  • Browsers disappear (like Chrome or Firefox).
  • Apps that are dependent on browsers cannot open them.

Things to note:

  • If you've set up screen time schedules and routines that allow or block browsers, they will disappear and reappear accordingly. For example, Chrome will disappear during the school day if you block it during that time period. It will then reappear if you allow it during free time after school.
  • The Starter Plan does not include access to the app store, web browsers, or games.

Set time limits on browsing

  • Set a routine for scheduled times they can use web browsing
