These controls will allow parents and guardians to monitor the time spent by their kids on Instagram and even set time limits. It will also notify parents or guardians when their child reports someone on the platform.<br \/>\nMosseri gave out the information in a blog post (via), adding that these new additions have been in development for a while. The Meta-owned company also unveiled a handful of other safety features focused on teens. These changes come ahead of Mosseri\u2019s testimony to a U.S. Senate Committee this week.<br \/>\nInstagram is also working on a dedicated educational hub for parents\/guardians with tutorials and tips on social media use by children. Additionally, the company said it would soon begin the broader rollout of the \u201cTake a Break\u201d feature that was previewed in October.<br \/>\nWhen enabled, this feature sends reminders\/notifications to users in 10, 20, or 30-minute intervals to close the app. Instagram said it would notify users of this feature to encourage widespread adoption. The platform said that up to 90% of the users kept the reminders on after enabling them. The feature will first make its way to the U.S., Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand while global availability will commence next year.<br \/>\nThe platform is changing how recommendations work for teenagers<br \/>\nInstagram is also changing how tagging permissions work for teenagers on the platform. Starting early next year, users will be unable to mention or tag teenage users on the app. Furthermore, the service is also gaining a bulk delete feature next month. This would allow users to delete photos, likes, comments from the platform in bulk. This feature would allow users to \u201cmanage their digital footprint,\u201d the Instagram chief said.<br \/>\nGoing forward, Instagram would be stricter with recommendations to teens through Search, Explore, Hashtags, and Suggested Accounts. The platform will also \u201cnudge\u201d users to different topics \u201cif they\u2019ve been dwelling on one topic for a while.\u201d<br \/>\nThe blog post also includes quotes from psychologists and mental health experts citing the benefits of the \u201cTake a Break\u201d and the \u201cnudge\u201d features. These additions come as Meta faces sharp criticism for its inaction despite knowing its platforms could be harmful to teens.<br \/>\nAlthough Instagram has also spoken about a kids\u2019 version of the platform, those plans have been dropped at this point.<br \/>\nThe post Instagram Adding Extensive Parental Controls In March 2022 appeared first on Android Headlines.&#013;<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/plus.maciejpiasecki.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Samsung-Galaxy-Z-Flip-3-5G-AM-AH-19.jpg\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\">&#013;<br \/>\nSource: ndroidheadlines.com&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Instagram chief Adam Mosseri has announced that the platform will bring revamped parental controls in March 2022.
