Parents can also take advantage of the app&#8217;s <strong>Time Management Tools<\/strong>, which let you set daily time limits for Instagram usage and block the app during certain hours.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Restricted Mode<\/strong> is another valuable feature that filters out content that may be inappropriate for younger users.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"3\">How Instagram\u2019s Built-In Parental Controls Work<\/h2>\n<p>Instagram\u2019s built-in parental controls are designed to help you keep your kids safe while exploring the app.<\/p>\n<p>The Supervised Accounts feature is available to account holders who are between the ages of 13 and 17. For teen users who are between 13 and 15, the Supervision feature is mandatory, but these <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">built-in protections and <\/span>limits for teens 16 and over are optional.<\/p>\n<p>As a parent, you can monitor your child&#8217;s activity through supervised <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instagram teen <\/span>accounts. This means you can see who they&#8217;re following and who is following them, giving you insight into their online interactions.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how they work:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Account Privacy<\/strong>. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">access the account privacy settings and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">set your child\u2019s account to private, meaning only approved followers can see their content.

Use time limits to manage how long your child can spend on Instagram each day. You can also schedule breaks at specific times, helping to moderate their screen time effectively.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Account Followers<\/strong>. <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can see which accounts are following your child, which accounts your child is following on Instagram, and who your child <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">has set to block or restrict<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on the app.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Direct Messages and Comments<\/strong>. You can see who is allowed to send direct messages to your child, who can add them to a group chat, and who can comment on their posts, reducing the risk of exposure to inappropriate content.<\/li>\n<li><b>Sensitive Content Control<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You can see how your child\u2019s <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">content sensitivity controls<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are set up, whether they have requested this type of content to be hidden or available to them.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You can also set specific Hidden Words to not show up on your child\u2019s Instagram feed or Explore page.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><strong>Approve or Deny Setting Changes.<\/strong><\/strong> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If your <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">children<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> want to change the settings on their <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Teen accounts<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, you can approve or deny these changes, such as who can message them, making a profile public, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These parental controls are made to create a safer Instagram experience for teens, giving you peace of mind while they navigate social media.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"4\">The Limitations of Instagram\u2019s Parental Features<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_51187\" style=\"width: 760px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-51187\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-51187\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"can you put parental controls on instagram\" width=\"750\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background-808x539.jpg 808w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background-392x261.jpg 392w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background-1232x821.jpg 1232w, https:\/\/cdn-blog.findmykids.org\/2024\/11\/The-smartphone-is-encased-in-a-chain-with-a-lock-isolated-on-white-background.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-51187\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">atlascompany\/freepik.com<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Even though Instagram offers tools for parental supervision, these built-in features have some limitations.

The platform\u2019s Restricted Mode also reduces exposure to inappropriate material. These features are designed to help families create a safer Instagram experience, giving teens freedom to explore while keeping parents informed and in control.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you put parental control on Instagram?<\/h3>\n<p>You can use the Parental Supervision Tool on teen accounts in Instagram to monitor their activity and set daily time limit controls, such as sleep mode, to ensure they are not on Instagram late at night.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I restrict inappropriate content on Instagram?<\/h3>\n<p>In sensitive content settings, you can toggle on the \u201cLess\u201d feature to limit sensitive content on your child\u2019s account.<\/p>\n<h3>Should I allow my 12-year-old to have Instagram?<\/h3>\n<p>The youngest allowed age on Instagram is 13 years old. Social media apps implement age restrictions to ensure age-appropriate online experiences.<\/p>\n<h3>Can a 12-year-old have Instagram with parental controls?<\/h3>\n<p>According to Instagram\u2019s Privacy Policy, users under the age of 13 may not create an Instagram account. However, any user between the ages of 13 and 15 will automatically have an Instagram Teens Account, which has built-in parental controls.<\/p>\n<h3>How can I monitor my daughter&#8217;s Instagram?<\/h3>\n<p>You can use Supervision features to monitor the activity on your teen\u2019s Instagram account, such as who they follow, who follows them, blocked accounts, who can message them, and other privacy settings.<\/p>\n<h3>Can Instagram be monitored by parents?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, with the Family Center, parents can monitor their children\u2019s activity on Instagram and use the built-in parental controls to manage privacy and content settings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 10px;
