The TikTok team announced that the app will soon introduce a feature that will help many users reduce the time they spend daily browsing its platform. They indicated that the new feature, which will be available in the coming weeks, will assist users in managing their daily time spent on the app by providing them with notifications and warnings if they spend too much time using TikTok.
Experts at TikTok believe that the new feature "will create a better awareness of positive digital habits" and will help users take breaks while scrolling through the app for extended periods. The official TikTok blog stated, "At TikTok, we believe that our digital experiences should bring us joy, entertainment, connection, and enrichment. Having a positive relationship with devices and digital applications is not only about measuring screen time but also about feeling in control of how we use technology and ensuring that the time we spend online positively contributes to our sense of well-being."
It's worth noting that Instagram previously launched a similar feature called "Take a Break," aimed at protecting users from excessive internet use and helping them understand the time they spend daily on its applications.
