Tips for TikTok
Make it stick
- Turn off pausing for TikTok if you never need it for work. The rule stays on until you do a typing task.
- If you must check it for work, allow one pause per day with a daily limit.
- Pair it with rules for Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts so short video does not just move to another app.
