TikTok sets 60-minute daily screen time limit for some users
TikTok is setting a 60-minute daily screen time limit for users who are aged under 18.
But they will have the ability to opt out of the new measure, which TikTok says will be rolled out "in the coming weeks". TikTok said the new limit comes after it brought in a prompt last year to encourage teens to manage their screen time. It said this helped "increase the use of our screen time tools by 234%".
Parents of children using the Family Pairing option on the app will also be able to set screen time limits, as well as access a dashboard which would give a breakdown of app usage.
