TikTok recently released some new features which will help with supervision. These new features include Time Away, a feature to decide when it's time for children to take a break and a recurring schedule. There's also a feature which allows parents and carers to see who their children are following on TikTok.

More information about these new features can be found HERE and the full range of TikTok Family Pairing features can be found HERE.

TikTok, Teens, Social Media and You

MediaSmart have released a new resource for parents and carers whose children are using TikTok. Designed for 13+ (as you have to be 13 to use TikTok), the resources will help parents and carers better understand their young person's online world and support them through conversation and participation.

There's a campaign film, downloadable guide with practical tips, a school-to-parent letter and more. Full details can be found HERE.
