New Screen Time Transition Notifications

The Bark Team  |  December 22, 2025


We’ve got a highly requested feature to announce! Kids will now get notified when a new screen time routine takes effect. This means they’ll be able to know exactly when to expect changes in what they can access online, preventing frustration and surprises. 

We hope this helps your child manage their time and lean into different schedules — more rest when it's bedtime and more focus when it’s during the school day. Setting kids up for success means allowing them to see the full picture when it comes to parental controls, and we think this new feature will do exactly that.
