QQ launches youth mode for mobile version: a simpler social experience

Recently, Tencent has taken into account that schools have started opening in various parts of the country and students have entered a normal learning state. In order to protect students from online fraud, it has specially launched a "Teen Mode" for the mobile version of QQ (Android users display "Teen Mode", iOS users display "Learning Mode").

Users can click [General] in the settings of mobile QQ to select a mode. After turning on the "Teen Mode" , only content related to learning will be pushed in the QQ Highlights page.

In addition to "Teen Mode", there are also the classic "Default Mode" and "Simple Mode".

According to Tencent, the youth mode provides a simpler social experience and a purer learning atmosphere. It can minimize information interference, improve learning efficiency, and reduce the risk of online fraud.

Under the "Dynamics" column, there are only 8 functions in the youth mode, including study room, Penguin tutoring, Tencent classroom, etc., and you can freely set the on and off status of these functions.

In youth mode, QQ can automatically block invalid search information and only receive existing contacts and chat records, so that students are free from interference and improve learning efficiency. In youth mode, chat records can also be set to display pinyin.

Some netizens said that this was inspired by the popular pinyin abbreviations of primary school students.

In the advanced option settings of youth mode, QQ opens customized options.

Users can choose whether to add strangers, choose to keep or delete social functions, and choose whether to turn on the device lock.

Parents can also customize exclusive modes according to their children's different personalities and needs, and can also adjust them according to different time periods such as the start of school, winter and summer vacations, etc.

"Teen Mode" is one of the measures to protect teenagers on the Internet. It is understood that iQiyi, Mango TV, and Bilibili have all launched youth mode. Every time a user opens such a video APP, a "Teen Mode" reminder will pop up automatically.

For minors, "Teen Mode" can better protect them from using the Internet reasonably and allocating their time in a healthy Internet environment.
