10. Click on the bottom right gear icon.
    
11. Click on Test Monitoring.
12. Click the ✖ to close out of the app. Rest assured, it'll continue to run in the background.

How do I know it's working?

Open up your parent app / dashboard, and tap your child's profile. Then, tap Devices.

You should see the Chromebook with a green checkmark after a few minutes:

Best Practices

• Repeat these steps for any other children by clicking the Time on the bottom right > Log out. Then, sign in with the other child's user profile and repeat the steps above.
• Talk to your child about Bark and why the Bark for Chromebooks app and Bark extensions need to remain installed. Don't worry, if either one is deleted or stops working, we will alert you.
