Threads Parental Controls: Meta has decided to introduce a new parental control feature in its social media platform Threads. It is believed that soon users will get the feature of parental control on this platform. The purpose of this feature is that parents can keep an eye on every online activity of their children. Apart from this, it will also alert parents about the activities of children. Let us know how this new feature will work.
Meta’s continuous focus on children’s digital safety
For your information, let us tell you that Meta has been paying attention to online safety for a long time. Meta has been working towards making its platforms safer for the last several years, especially for the youth. In recent months, the company has taken steps such as preventing repeated posts of inappropriate content on Instagram. Apart from this, some safety features related to Meta AI have also been improved for parents.
This is how children will be controlled
According to media reports, through new features, parents will get information about how much time their child spends on Threads. Apart from this, they will be able to set a daily time limit so that if they use more time than is given, the app will automatically limit it. Apart from this, users will also get the option of Sleep Mode. This will reduce the use of the app at night.
You will also get control over content and tags
For your information, let us tell you that Parental Supervision will also include such options with the help of which parents will be able to decide what kind of tags and content the young users can see. If any content is considered inappropriate then it can be banned. Besides, many other controls related to privacy and content will also be available so that children can get a safe online environment.
Built-in safety features
Let us tell you that Meta says that these new tools will work in conjunction with the safety features already present on Threads. This clearly means that in addition to the safety features already present in Teen Accounts, Parental Supervision will now provide an extra safety layer which will make the platform more safe for children.
