Concerned about the well-being of its community, the social network TikTok recently announced a new set of measures to limit the time spent on its application. The goal is for users to develop positive digital habits.
After the introduction of daily limits on the use of the TikTok application, the social network will now allow you to define usage intervals. All so that users feel in control of the time spent daily consuming the content of this social network.
TikTok wants you to take breaks from using its app
With an implementation to take place in the coming weeks, TikTok users will be able and should limit themselves to using this social network. For this, an interval function will be implemented.
This novelty will send users notifications or reminders to take a break from consuming the social network. Such alerts will be sent by the TikTok application as soon as a time limit of uninterrupted usage is exceeded.
TikTok’s continuous usage limits will be set by users themselves in the application settings. In fact, they will define the rules they must follow to reduce their dependence on the social network.
Your choices must be made in conscience and with your own well-being as a priority. To this end, the TikTok app offers a control panel where you will have detailed information on your app usage habits.
There you can find metrics about the daily time spent on TikTok, the number of times you opened the app in a day or even a summary of the day and night time of content consumption. In addition, the user may be notified weekly to review these metrics.
For young people between the ages of 13 and 17, the social network will implement a new alert system to reduce their dependence. If this group spends more than 100 minutes daily on the app, the next time they open it, they will be notified that there is a tool to limit the use of the app.
In summary, TikTok is concerned about the well-being of its users and, for that, wants a moderate use of its application. It will now be up to users to take advantage of the tools at their disposal to enhance their mental and physical health.
