TikTok has introduced several new features aimed at improving user experience and safety:
- Enhanced Parental Controls: Parents can now block specific accounts from interacting with their teen's account and receive notifications when their teen posts public content. They also have increased visibility into their teen's privacy settings.
- Creator Care Mode: Automatically filters offensive, inappropriate, or profane comments using AI to learn the creator's preferences.
- Comment Management: Creators can block specific words from comments and mute users who use those words.
- Creator Inbox: A new professional inbox experience with "Unread" and "Starred" folders, custom responses, and quick replies.
- Creator Chat Room: Similar to Instagram's broadcast channels, allows creators with at least 5,000 followers to share updates and get feedback with up to 300 participants.
- Content Check: A feature to check if content is eligible for the For You feed and adheres to Community Guidelines before posting.
- Well-being Missions: Interactive quizzes and flashcards to promote balanced digital habits, along with a new in-app digital wellbeing experience featuring breathing exercises and screen time insights.
