Instagram has launched Parental Supervision Tools and a Family Center in India to assist parents in monitoring their children’s online activities. The tools introduced in this feature will assist parents in becoming more involved and supervising their teen’s behaviour on the app.

This launch comes at a time when there is growing global concern about the negative effects of social media on the minds of today’s youth. Meta has been working closely with experts, parents, guardians, and young people from India to better understand their needs. One of the most pressing needs remains the availability of tools and resources develop an understanding to parents about digital services.

This helps them to assist their teens in managing their online experiences. The newly released tools were first introduced to the US market in March of this year.

Instagram now offers new supervision tools.

Instagram Supervision Tools are now available in India, allowing parents and guardians to:

• Monitor how much time young people spend on Instagram 

Establish screen time limits and schedule breaks for young people to manage their time on Instagram

• View who their young people follow and who follows them

Parents and guardians can also access resources from experts via Family Center, an education hub. The topics will include how to talk to young people about social media. There will also video tutorials on how to use the new Supervision Tools.

“Meta has been working closely with experts, parents, guardians, and young people from India to understand their needs.” “One of the most pressing needs remains the availability of tools and resources to educate parents about digital services,” Instagram stated in a press release.
