Social media platform Instagram has removed the daily time limit option for its users.
According to an ANI news despatch, following the latest app update, the ‘Set daily time limit’ menu card pops up and prompts users to choose how long that should be, with a new minimum of 30 minutes, while the radio button next to the maximum of three hours is pre-selected in the menu card as if to nudge users to choose that limit.
Instagram introduced daily time limits in 2018 with a reminder sent when the limit is reached, which is useful for those who want to limit their social media usage.
Originally, users could select a time limit as short as ten or five minutes a day, but such short durations are no longer available.
