Early test results show that once teens set the reminders, more than 90% of them keep them on. We’re encouraged to see that teens are using Take A Break. To make sure that teens are aware of this feature, we’ll show them notifications suggesting they turn these reminders on. We’ll also show them expert-backed tips to help them reflect and reset. If someone has been scrolling for a certain amount of time, we’ll ask them to take a break from Instagram and suggest that they set reminders to take more breaks in the future. It’s important to me that people feel good about the time they spend on Instagram, so today we’re launching Take A Break to empower people to make informed decisions about how they’re spending their time.
We’re also starting to test a new experience for teens to better manage their digital footprint on Instagram.We previously announced the development of Take A Break, and we’re launching it in the US, UK, Ireland, Canada, New Zealand and Australia today.Providing Teens with More Tools to Better Manage Their Instagram Experience We’re also developing a new educational hub for parents and guardians that will include additional resources, like product tutorials and tips from experts, to help them discuss social media use with their teens.
This is the first version of these tools we’ll continue to add more options over time. We’ll also give teens a new option to notify their parents if they report someone, giving their parents the opportunity to talk about it with them. Parents and guardians will be able to view how much time their teens spend on Instagram and set time limits. Parents and guardians know what’s best for their teens, so we plan to launch our first tools in March to help them guide and support their teens on Instagram. We’re introducing a new educational hub for parents and guardians.We’re launching our first tools for parents and guardians early next year.Involving Parents and Guardians in Their Teens’ Experience on Instagram This includes developing new tools for parents and guardians and launching Take A Break. Today, I’d like to clarify some of the work that we’ve been doing for a long time, and also lay out a few new things that we’ve been developing to meaningfully improve the experience on Instagram for teens, parents and guardians. We’ll continue doing research, consulting with experts, and testing new concepts to better serve teens. I want to make sure that it stays that way, which means above all keeping them safe on Instagram. I’m proud that our platform is a place where teens can spend time with the people they care about, explore their interests, and explore who they are.
