That is why many parents are concerned about their kids' activities on TikTok and try to view the TikTok history of their kids' accounts more often. So, in this article, we will know a little more about TikTok and how to check TikTok history remotely.

Is TikTok Appropriate for Kids?

Your kid needs to be at least 13 years old to sign up on TikTok, yet child psychologists recommend that parents not allow kids below the age of 15 to access TikTok. Even though there are several benefits of TikTok, there are potential risks if kids use it without their parent's supervision. For instance, the web platforms have:

• Inappropriate Content

In a recent survey, it was found that around 32.5% of TikTok users are less than 19 years old. And the sad part is there is plenty of explicit content on TikTok. Even though TikTok tries very hard to keep the bad content away, it is impossible given the amount of data available and its worldwide reach.

• Safety Concerns

Apps like TikTok can be the breeding ground for predators and child abusers. Currently, there are no restrictions on who can join the app, and the one that your kid is following or talking with could be anyone, even a criminal or sociopath.

In the challenge, participants held their breath until they passed out.

The dangers of these kinds of content and online predators make it necessary for parents to monitor kids’ TikTok history. Keep an eye out and make sure they are not accessing anything inappropriate.
