LOS ANGELES (Kashmir English): TikTok has said it is updating its screen time management page with new features to restrict the duration of time teens spend scrolling, whether it is disturbing content or not.

The social networking platform is targeting teens by adding a “Time and Well-Being” section.

This new feature includes over 120 prompts users can download, and a sound generator that plays soothing sounds and offers breathing exercises.

To promote mindful habits, TikTok will introduce “well-being missions.” Users can earn badges by achieving these missions, which are designed to support actions like limiting daily or weekly screen time and avoiding the app at night.

TikTok Youth Council

TikTok has developed this feature under guidance from its TikTok Youth Council and various experts.

Earlier in 2025, TikTok introduced parental controls and other features to assist parents in monitoring what their children are viewing and sharing.

Moreover, the social media platform also announced that it would let users restrict the AI-generated content they see on the app.
