Instagram launched a feature that urges
teenagers to take breaks from the photo-sharing
platform and announced other tools aimed at
protecting young users from harmful content on
the Facebook-owned service.
The previously announced “Take A Break” feature
encourages teens to stop scrolling if they have
been on the social media platform for a while,
Instagram head Adam Mosseri said in a blog
post. It rolled out to the U.S., United Kingdom,
Ireland, Canada, New Zealand and Australia, and
would reach the rest of the world early next year,
he said.
