TikTok wants to help you limit your screen time

Source: TikTok

TikTok is an endless pit of short-form videos. If you want some help to keep yourself off the app, it will launch a new tool to offer daily limit reminders. Teenage users (between the ages of 13 and 17) will be promoted to use this screen time limiting tool if they spend over 100 minutes in the app on a single day. 

The app will also get a Digital Wellbeing-like dashboard that shows the summary of your usage. If you use Instagram, it has a similar tool. The statistics you're shown include the amount of time the app has been opened, a breakdown of your daytime and nighttime use, and an overall counter for the amount of time you spend on the app daily.
