Can I lock my child’s account or are there any other safety features?
‘Family Safety Mode’ or ‘Family Pairing’ lets parents or carers link their own TikTok accounts to their child’s account. Parents or carers can then use parental controls on their child’s TikTok account but this is only possible when using the app, not on mobile web or desktop browsers.
Controls include screen time, limits on who the child can exchange messages with and blocking certain inappropriate content.
Direct messages are automatically turned off for accounts of users aged between 13 to 15 and only become available once a user is 16.
