Instagram adds new parental controls in Spain to supervise the experience of teenagers

Instagram has launched in Spain new parental control tools that will allow parents and guardians monitor teen accounts in charge, and has enabled the ‘Center for families’, with resources to guide adults and minors in the digital world.

The new parental control tools now arrive in Spain after its launch in other countries at the beginning of the year. These are resources designed to help adults and teens use the platform responsibly.

A novelty will allow parents or guardians to send an invitation to the minor in their charge to supervise their account, and vice versa. Thus, they will be able to see how much time you spend a day on Instagram and the breaks you takeand set temporary usage limits, as well as check who they follow and who their followers are.

Parental control tools also include receiving notifications when teens have reported an account or post, which will also show who has been reported and the type of content.

Likewise, Instagram has enabled the ‘Center for families’ in Spain, a space that brings together different resources prepared by experts and aimed at parents and guardians, so that both they and adolescents can safely navigate the digital world.

Along with these developments, Instagram has announced the testing of a new feature globally. Aimed at teenagers, it encourages them to change the subject if they detect that they have been viewing the same type of content in the Explore section for a long time.

From Instagram they point out that, although at the moment this function is in testing, the company’s intention is to implement it soon.
