Facebook and Instagram today both introduced new tools meant to help people control their time spent on the two social networks. The new dashboard, which Facebook says it developed with mental health experts, lets people see how much time they've spent using either app with the average time for that particular app. People can set daily limits for the amount of time they want to spend using the app, and reminders to ensure they don't surpass those limits. Facebook says users can change or cancel reminders at any time. The new dashboard also lets people easily mute push notifications so Facebook and Instagram keep interruptions to a minimum. These updates are rolling out soon on the Facebook and Instagram mobile apps for Android and iOS.
