A new TikTok feature is designed to keep teenagers from endlessly scrolling… on TikTok. Under-18 users now get calming visuals and breathing exercises when their feed takes over after 10 PM. If ignored, a second full-screen message appears an hour later, basically begging teens to call it a night.
The app claims it’s addressing mental health issues, but skeptics see it as a Band-Aid. Teenagers, meanwhile, seem mostly annoyed—shocking exactly no one. But hey, what better way to beat screen addiction than by staring at another screen?
