App Overview

Apple Music is a streaming service that offers access to a wide variety of music, including songs, albums, playlists, and radio stations. It is available on a variety of devices, including iPhones, iPads, and computers.

In terms of its safety for kids, Apple Music has several features that can help parents ensure that their children are only listening to age-appropriate content. These include:

Parental controls: Apple Music allows parents to set explicit content filters, which block explicit songs or artists from being played. Parents can also set limits on the amount of time their child can spend listening to music.

Kids-only content: Apple Music offers a selection of kids-only playlists and radio stations that feature age-appropriate music and content.

Apple Music for Kids: This is a separate subscription service specifically designed for kids under the age of 13. It offers a curated selection of music, as well as parental controls and the ability to set limits on screen time.

Despite these safeguards, it is still important for parents to be aware of their child's online activities and to have ongoing conversations about internet safety. It is also a good idea for parents to regularly review and adjust the parental controls and settings on their child's device to ensure that they are appropriate for their child's age and maturity level.

Overall, Apple Music can be a safe and enjoyable way for children to listen to music, as long as parents take the necessary precautions and stay involved in their child's online activities.

Using Bark to Manage Screen Time

Bark gives you the ability to decide when and if your child can use Apple Music. This could look like “only in the evenings”, “just for 30 minutes a day”, or “never” if you want to give them a break for a period of time.

In addition to screen time, Bark also empowers you to block websites, create custom screen time schedules, and track location.
