Not today. BarkSkip is built for Standard (ad-free) Netflix in a desktop browser (netflix.com/.../watch/...). It reads Netflix’s player timing and skips using a catalog mapped to specific titles. Hulu, Disney+, Prime Video, and the Netflix TV/mobile apps are not supported at this time.

Yes — as long as Netflix is playing in Chrome on your computer and that computer is connected to the TV.

BarkSkip runs in the browser, not in Netflix’s smart TV app. HDMI only sends picture and sound from your laptop to the big screen. The extension still does the skipping on the computer running Chrome.

Setup

1. Connect your laptop or desktop to the TV with HDMI (or use extended display).

2. Open Chrome → Netflix → start your movie on a /watch/... page.

3. Open the BarkSkip popup: turn Extension Power on, choose categories, confirm the supported title.

4. Press play, then go fullscreen in Netflix (or mirror/extend to the TV).

5. Watch for the BarkSkip warning bubble on the video — skips run automatically.

No. It only runs in Chrome on a computer on netflix.com. The Netflix app on smart TVs, phones, and tablets does not support browser extensions.

BarkSkip is for any breed (or mix) whose reactivity shows up during TV watching, barking at animals on screen, or reacting to sirens or loud sounds. It does not diagnose or treat reactivity; it reduces exposure to known trigger moments on supported movies. Every dog is different: some need only Animals skips; others need Loud Noises, Violence, or more. Use the category toggles in the popup and report missed or wrong skips so the catalog can improve. Severe reactivity may still need a trainer or behaviorist alongside BarkSkip.

BarkSkip watches playback on supported titles and compares it to a curated trigger catalog (animals on screen, loud noises, and other categories you choose). When a mapped scene approaches, it displays a brief on-screen warning, then skips that segment so your dog is less likely to hear or see the trigger. You can turn categories on or off in the extension popup—for example, Animals only, or Loud Noises for sirens and doorbells. It’s meant to reduce remote juggling and give you and your dog a calmer watch experience; it’s not a substitute for training or veterinary behavior plans.

No. BarkSkip is a convenience tool for TV watching with reactive dogs. It does not replace professional training, medication, or veterinary advice.

Chrome on desktop or laptop is required today.

Safari for Mac is in development but not available yet as a public release. Firefox, Edge, mobile browsers, and Netflix on TV apps are not supported.

BarkSkip runs on Netflix watch pages when you use it. Optional reports send details you submit (e.g., playback time, title) to help improve the catalog. See our privacy policy for details.

On a playing, Netflix watch page, open the BarkSkip popup → Report at current time. For more details (full scene notes), use barkskip.com/report-trigger.

• Google Chrome on a computer (laptop or desktop — not phone or tablet)

• A Netflix account

• A supported title in the BarkSkip catalog (five movies free; full catalog with BarkSkip Pro)

• The extension turned on, on a Netflix watch page (netflix.com/.../watch/...) with the video playing

You’ll see a warning bubble on screen, then an automatic skip to the end of that trigger/scene. You can cancel the skip from the bubble. If you scrub into the middle of a scene, BarkSkip can catch up and skip to the end of that trigger window.

You choose categories in the pop-up, including Animals, Babies/Kids, Loud Noises, Violence, Supernatural, Scary Things, Robots, and Weird Things. Only enabled categories are skipped.

Only titles in the BarkSkip catalog.

The beta free tier includes five flagship movies:

• Aloha‍ ‍

• Meet the Parents‍ ‍

• Meet the Fockers‍ ‍

• There's Something About Mary‍ ‍

• The Proposal

Other Netflix titles may play in the app but won’t skip until they’re added to the catalog (and unlocked on your plan). We’re expanding the catalog over time.

Why didn’t BarkSkip work on my movie?

Common reasons:

• The title isn’t in the catalog yet

• Extension Power is off

• You’re on Netflix browse/home instead of a /watch/... page

• The video isn’t playing‍ ‍

• The wrong movie is selected in the popup

• The trigger category is turned off

Refresh the Netflix tab after installing or updating the extension.

No. BarkSkip skips catalogued moments we’ve mapped and QA’d. It won’t catch every unmapped sound or animal — especially on new or rare content.

Use Report at current time in the popup (while playing on Netflix) to flag misses or bad timing. For more detail, use barkskip.com/report-trigger.
