Instagram's new Teen Accounts automatically default to privacy for users under 18, ensuring their safety and limiting account change permissions without parental consent.
With new Teen Accounts, users under 16 must obtain a parent's permission to alter account settings, improving safety measures for younger teens.
Teens can select topics for tailored recommendations, but content visibility remains limited on Reels and Explore, promoting a safer exploration of interests.
The changes will affect over 100 million accounts globally, with plans for similar restrictions across Meta's services, including Facebook and WhatsApp.
