Basically, there will be an option to show that your live is only suitable for adults. Once set, teenagers under 18 won\u2019t be able to see your broadcast. That means you can engage with other adults without having to watch your language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The platform is also raising the age limit for going live and monetizing from 16 to 18. Being a member of TikTok for more than a year to talk about my novels, I\u2019ve seen way too many young children pretending to be of age. It will be interesting to see how the company plans to verify ages when teenagers create accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/10\/TikTok-adds-features-for-adult-only-broadcasting-2.jpg\" alt=\"TikTok adds features for adult-only broadcasting\" class=\"wp-image-205557\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The safety reminders for content creators are also getting an upgrade. You\u2019ll be able to set keywords for your TikTok live, with the platform removing any comments with them. In this way, you can focus on presenting to your audience without worrying about nasty messages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-tiktok wp-block-embed-tiktok\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"tiktok-embed\" cite=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@tiktoklive_creator\/video\/7134627836995980587\" data-video-id=\"7134627836995980587\" data-embed-from=\"oembed\" style=\"max-width: 605px;min-width: 325px;\" > <section> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"@tiktoklive_creator\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@tiktoklive_creator?refer=embed\">@tiktoklive_creator<\/a> <p>Go LIVE together via Multi-guest | Enjoy going LIVE with 5 guests; try it and<a title=\"golivenow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/golivenow?refer=embed\">#golivenow<\/a> <a title=\"multiguest\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/tag\/multiguest?refer=embed\">#multiguest<\/a><\/p> <a target=\"_blank\" title=\"\u266c original sound - TikTok LIVE Creator\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/music\/original-sound-7134627793165470510?refer=embed\">\u266c original sound &#8211; TikTok LIVE Creator<\/a> <\/section> <\/blockquote> <script async src=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/embed.js\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Multi-guest limit has increased to five, so you can have more people with you on your live if you wish.
