Meta introduces new “Teen Accounts” on instagram to enhance parental control

Meta is launching “teen accounts” for Instagram users under 18, aimed at giving parents greater oversight of their children’s online activities. This initiative will not only apply to new teen users but will also transition existing accounts in the coming months.

Key features of the teen accounts include enhanced parental controls, such as the ability to set daily usage limits, restrict access during nighttime hours, and monitor direct messages and content categories viewed by teens.
