Safe, but discuss safety tips with children.
Incredibly popular app with young children. Just watching videos there is very little danger, although if creating an account, ensure to toggle off “Allow Others to Find me” and toggle on “Private Account” in privacy settings. For additional protection, limit interactions with comments, duets, and messages to “friends” or “off.” Under the digital well-being setting, you can limit app use to 2 hours per day.
