Bark vs Boomerang

Between Bark vs Boomerang, Bark provides a good deal more value. Bark subscriptions come with the ability to add unlimited kids and devices — no exceptions. For bigger families with lots of kids and lots of devices (think phones, tablets, and laptops), this is definitely a plus. Boomerang subscriptions cover up to 10 devices only.

Bark and Boomerang both have content monitoring technology that analyzes your child’s text messages for signs of danger. Bark, however, uses state-of-the-art, artificial intelligence and machine learning that keeps up with the ever-evolving nuances of teen slang. It even learns what different emojis mean! Boomerang’s monitoring relies on simple keyword searches. So, in the battle of Bark vs Boomerang: Bark’s technology comes out on top.

Hands down, Bark is the better option for families with iOS devices. Monitoring text messages is an important part of online safety, and Boomerang doesn’t currently have this feature for iOS. So, when it comes to comparing the two options, Bark is the clear winner for iOS families.
