Tik Tok is imposing a daily screen time limit of 60 minutes for users who are under 18.

If young people cross the new limit, they will need to set a code to continue using the service.

But they will be able to opt out of the new measure, which Tik Tok says will be implemented "in the coming weeks."

The video app, which is owned by Chinese firm ByteDance, said it is introducing the feature to help people "stay in control" of their usage.

Tik Tok said the new limit comes after it introduced a requirement last year to encourage teenagers to manage their screen time. He said it helped "increase the use of our screen time tools by 234%".

Users of the platform must be at least 13 years old and, as part of this new feature, anyone under the age of 18 will receive a weekly notification with a "summary of their screen time"./ CNA.al
