Bark - Parental Controls

This requires an unbelievable amount of permissions on the phone. I get the idea of careful monitoring, but setting an app up to access everything isn't reasonable. We should be able to control what permissions are necessary in relation to what restrictions we want to impose. Even after doing everything and finding all the menus, sub-menus, workarounds, links, it STILL didn't work and said that I haven't given all permissions, when all the boxes are checked on my child's screen.

I've been really disappointed in the Bark app despite high expectations. The parent and child app takes a long time to sync, and often doesn't sync correctly (e.g. I put the phone into school or sleep mode but child can still text). Child cant see number of minutes remaining. I was really excited for this app but now I'm not sure if we will keep it due to all of the glitches and frustrations.
