Instagram Users Will Need To Share Their Birthdays To Continue Using The App
Instagram has announced that users will have to share their birthdays with the app to continue using the app in the future. "This information is necessary for new features we're developing to protect young people," Instagram said. Instagram, which already shows warning screens on certain posts, will now begin asking users about their birthdays before they can see those posts.
This information allows us to create new safety features for young people, and helps ensure we provide the right experiences to the right age group," the company said in a blog post. “This information also allows us to personalize your experience, for example, we can apply recent changes we made to restrict advertiser targeting options for audiences under the age of 18, to more people. It also helps us show you more relevant ads," it added.
