In addition, teens will be restricted from seeing some sensitive content in the app’s Explore page and in Reels. For instance, the app won’t show them content that shows people fighting or content promoting cosmetic procedures.

To address screen time concerns, teens will be notified to close the app after they have used it for an hour each day, and Instagram will automatically enable sleep mode between 10 PM and 7 AM each day to mute notifications overnight. During this time, the app will send auto replies to any direct messages (DMs) they receive.
