Instagram is introducing a huge new change to help parents whose children have become addicted to the app.
The social media giant is launching supervision tools for UK teenagers' accounts which will let their parents keep an eye on their profile.
Mums and dads will be able to set daily use limits, see who their children follow and who is following them.
It evokes scenes of Black Mirror 's Arkangel episode which tells the tale of a single mum who uses technology to see what her daughter sees and hears and censor any distressing material.
In the second episode of the fourth series, Marie enrols her daughter Sara in a trial of Arkangel which implants technology into the child that allows her mum to track her.
First launched in the US in March, the new Instagram tools are now being expanded to the UK and Ireland for the first time.
With the new features, parents will be able to send an invitation to their teenager to initiate the supervision of their account.
Once this has been accepted, the parent will be able to set daily limits for how long their child can spend on the app and schedule breaks for specific times.
The tools also enable parents to see who their child follows and is followed by, and get information when the teenager reports an account or posts on the platform.
Youngsters can also invite a parent to supervise their account.
In addition, parents will be able to view a dashboard showing their child's daily habits on the platform.
Instagram confirmed that the parental supervision features automatically end when the child turns 18.
The rollout will coincide with a new "nudges" feature being tested in the UK and Ireland, which will see a notification that encourages them to switch to a different topic on the platform if they are repeatedly looking at the same type of content on the app's Explore tab.
Instagram said it designed this feature because research has suggested "nudges can be effective for helping people - especially teens - be more mindful of how they're using social media in the moment".
