We use the Bark phone and app for our middle schooler and i love how flexible the options are. I can easily add his school related apps and email but he doesnt have access to the app store or a web browser. The alerts are customizable and allow for him to have some degree of privacy while still keeping us abreast of any concerning activity. I really wish the location feature was more real-time (this really is a 4.5 star review), but the check in feature mitigates that problem

I really have to give you a 5 star. If you had more stars, I would tilt it off the charts. This is far the best thing that I ever purchased. The phone works great, and I'm keeping tabs on my son, and I can see where he is all the time. Thank you so much..
