Pro Tips
- If one parent or guardian has reviewed an alert, it will be marked as "read" or "Reviewed."
- Sort by "read" or "Reviewed" to find an alert the other notification contact(s) may have already seen.
- When we email additional contacts about alerts, they'll need to log in with the main Bark account's email and password to view the alert.
