How do I cancel my Bark account?

You can cancel in your account settings at any time.

We’re sorry to see you go! You can always reactivate your account at any time if you need us in the future.

  1. Uninstall Bark Kids from your child's iOS or Android devices. (Skip this step if it's a Bark Phone or Watch).

  2. Log in to your Bark account.

  3. Tap Account.

  4. Scroll down and select Cancel my account. You'll have access to Bark until the end of your paid subscription period.

    What happens to my data? When you lose access to your account, Bark deletes your payment info. After 15 days, all other data is purged. If you want it gone sooner, just ask.

I don't see a cancel button

If you can’t find the cancel button, a different message will provide instructions on where to go to modify your subscription.

For instance:

  • Apple in-app subscriptions have to be updated via Apple Subscriptions.

  • If you signed up through one of our affiliates, you may have to reach out to them directly to make changes to your plan.

Do I need to return my Bark device?

It depends on your situation:

  • You're within the return window
    If you cancel a Bark Phone, Bark Watch, Bark Sync, or Bark Home within the return window, a return shipping label will be automatically emailed to you once your paid subscription period ends.

  • You're outside the return window with an ongoing payment plan
    If you still have a remaining balance on an Equipment Installment Plan for a Bark Phone or Watch, you'll be asked to pay it off before canceling. Once paid off, you'll own the device outright and no return is needed.

  • You own your Bark Phone
    If you fully own your Bark Phone, you can have Bark software removed during the cancellation flow, or do it later by selecting Unlock under Deactivated Devices in Account Settings. Unlocking lets you use the phone as a standard Samsung device.
