Navigating the online world with kids is no joke, but the Bark Phone has made it so much easier! This Christmas, I surprised my 12-year-old with what he thought was the latest iPhone. His excitement was through the roof, but little did he know that this sleek device isn't just about the looks – it's a powerhouse designed to keep our kids safer online. I love that it looks just like a smart phone while giving me peace of mind.
It scans his texts, emails, social media, and apps for any potential digital dangers. Setting it up was easy, and the alerts I get are detailed enough to keep me informed without feeling like I'm prying. It's like having a digital ally in the parenting game. This phone is a must-have for all parents considering giving their pre-teen or teen a phone. Highly recommend!

Great first phone with options for the future
There are lots of starter phones out there that all basically offer the same thing - limit the applications your kid can use and tell you where they are. Bark has that of course but this one also does monitoring of stuff like their text and photos which is great. Thats a plus cause I don't have time to check my sons device every day. And I'd like him to have some freedom and accountability so he can learn to make good choices and manage his time well with some extra guide rails. Since the Bark phone is a real phone I let him explore the real world but still know what he's up to and help him create healthy boundaries and limits for his use.Got a case for it as well because...you know kids. But since its just a Samsung A14 there are lots of options out there - even an Otter Box if I have to thought thats a bit pricey.The only bummer is in group chats with friends he's the "green kid". Of course thats true with all of the kid phones out there - thanks Apple! Hopefully one day Apple will be more compatible with the rest of the world.Also should note, it doesn't come with a wall wort/brick/butt. Its got a USB-C to USB-C cable which is compatible with most USB charging bricks and laptops. I have a dozen of these stupid things lying around from years of Apple purchases so it wasn't a big deal. But might need to pick one up if you need one. I've personally had good luck with the Anker series of chargers.

We bought this for my 12-year olds birthday and couldn't be happier with it. We did a lot of research and needed a phone that allowed some apps for school and for fun too. But, we didn't want full open access, which is crazy nowadays. This is great as we control basically everything and can check to see if she is using things too much. Within the first few hours, we already got alerted to a youtube video that was a bit out of her age range and we were able to update some settings easily. The settings would've taken us hours to figure out on our own. My daughter loves it and has been fine with the phone shutting down or apps turning off at certain times. I love the texts she's been sending us throughout the day. We also downloaded some family games on it that we've had fun playing. We ended up getting my 7-year old the phone with their starter plan for Christmas because it is right in our price range and we think it'll be more worthwhile than a watch to her track location since we can upgrade to games and videos when she's ready. So happy we found this after hearing about all of the issues our neighbors have been having with their kids phones.
