“For adolescents under the age of 18, it will be operated by default. If the teenager decides to use Tiktok after 10 pm, for you feed will be boycotted through a router contemplation, helping them to finish at night,” the company says.
If a user ignores the first to collapse, they will soon see a second message “It is difficult to refuse” covering the entire screen. A little more than a month ago, Tiktok launched the adolescent advice system to close the application after 10 pm. The wind system also played quiet music.
Tiktok says that in its research, the target group for young users kept the meditation advantage of being made in 98 % of cases. Adult users can also stimulate the new directed meditation feature from within the application screen time settings page.
