Snapchat introduces ‘content controls’ to help parents limit sensitive content on the app
Snapchat’s parent company, Snap, has rolled out a new “Content Controls” feature in Family Center that allows parents to limit the type of content their teens watch on the app.
Last year, the company introduced “Family Center” on Snapchat to give parents a way to gain insight into who their teens are communicating with on the app, and now it’s added a new content management feature to help parents tailor their teens’ unique experiences. and needs.
“With the new Family Center content management, parents can filter out stories from publishers or creators that may have been identified as sensitive or suggestive. Enabling content management requires parents to have an existing Family Center with their teen,” Snapchat said in a blog post.
Parents can enable the feature by enabling the Restrict Sensitive Content filter in the Snapchat Family Center.
Teens will no longer be able to see blocked content in Stories and Spotlight, the platform’s short video section, once enabled.
Meanwhile, Snap has introduced a new artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot for Snapchat, powered by the latest version of OpenAI’s GPT technology.
The “My AI” chatbot is available as an experimental feature for Snapchat+ subscribers and will be rolled out this week, the company said in a blog post.
