文章摘要

YouTube推出新功能,允许用户关闭短视频Shorts的推荐内容。

文章总结

YouTube推出关闭Shorts功能

主要内容:
YouTube现已允许用户完全关闭其短视频功能Shorts。所有用户均可将Shorts的观看时间限制设置为零分钟,从而在移动应用中彻底隐藏该功能。此功能是YouTube去年10月推出的时间管理工具的升级,此前最低时间限制为15分钟。

关键细节:
1. 功能覆盖范围:该选项已面向所有家长账户开放,并正在逐步向普通成人账户推送。
2. 实际效果:达到时间限制后,Shorts标签页将仅显示“已达到Shorts浏览限制”的提示,且主页推荐的Shorts内容也会消失。
3. 设置路径:用户需在YouTube应用的“时间管理”设置中开启“Shorts浏览限制”,并选择零分钟选项。

背景信息:
今年1月,YouTube曾为家长新增限制子女观看Shorts时长的功能,并预告将推出零分钟选项。此举旨在帮助用户减少无意义的短视频浏览,提升时间管理效率。
