Douyin limits usage time for teens

Douyin, the Chinese version of the short video app TikTok, is restricting the time children under 14 are allowed to use the app. In the future, the time should only be 40 minutes per day. Between 10 PM and 6 AM., young people will then no longer be able to access Douyin at all. Douyin operator ByteDance also announced a „youth mode“ for children under 14, which would only provide users with „healthy“, curated content.
