As a response to the search for content with educational information, EduTik emerges, an application of short educational videos, available for Android on Google Play.

EduTik is essentially a platform for learning. “With its focus on short educational videos created by students, EduTik offers an accessible and relevant source of information for those looking for educational content.”

The platform comes to fill the void that TikTok leaves, according to users, regarding content, since the creators focus on entertainment through short videos full of special effects.

With EduTik, young people have the facility to learn wherever and whenever they want. The platform offers 90-minute videos that you can easily review thanks to the search option by subject or lesson.

On the other hand, they can also create and share their own videos with the student community.

ByteDance introduced a new mode in TikTok for users under 14 years of age with which, in addition to displaying educational content, it limits the time they can use the short video platform per day: a maximum of 40 minutes.

This is an initiative with which the company responsible for the platform introduces a temporary limit to the daily use that users under 14 years of age can make of it, as reported by TikTok in a statement.

This limit, implemented in China, only allows them to use the social network for 40 minutes a day. But it also restricts its use at night, from 10 at night to 6 in the morning, as explained in a communication.

In addition to this limit, the youth mode incorporates educational content from science and history, or from museums and galleries or even landscapes, with which the company hopes that children learn new things.

The platform points out that this measure is aimed at users under 14 with a real name, and in the case of those who do not have it, it urges parents to complete their profile and activate the youth mode.

Chinese giant Tencent Holdings announced in July that it would limit the use of Honor of Kings to players under the age of 12 to one hour a day. Also, children would not be able to connect to the service after 9 p.m.

Tencent also announced tougher restrictions on the money they can spend to purchase downloadable content for the game, and even the use of facial recognition to prevent minor users from using adult accounts to bypass the restrictions.

These measures are added to the decision of the Chinese government to limit the time that its underage citizens spend in front of the screens to combat addiction to video games.
