TikTok Launches Time and Well-Being Hub With Affirmation Journal, Sleep Sounds and Teen Missions

The company presents the redesign as a teen well-being measure during ongoing state scrutiny over its effects on youth.

Overview

  • Time and Well-being now replaces the screen-time page, adding breathing exercises and a sound generator with rain, waves and white noise.
  • An in-app affirmation journal offers more than 120 intention cards that users can download or share.
  • Expanded, teen-focused missions award badges for behaviors such as staying off the app at night, setting daily limits, checking weekly reports, and inviting others to participate.
  • An eight-week Sleep Hours Mission and a growable in-app well-being tree encourage consistent off-hours habits and meditation.
  • TikTok says tens of millions have used earlier meditation tools and reports early tests showing more return visits to the new hub than to the old menu.
