TikTok is also allowing users to set screen time limits for each day of the week and is starting a sleep reminder to help people plan when they want to be offline at night. The company is also sending weekly messages with a screen time recap to teen accounts.

5. How does TikTok plan to force the screen time limit for users under 13 years old?

Answer

• For users under 13 years old, an adult will have to enter a passcode to allow more time beyond the 60-minute limit. This will give 30 minutes of viewing time beyond the 60-minute limit.
