TikTok - Videos, Shop & LIVE

Short-form video, LIVE and shopping

TikTok - Videos, Shop & LIVE is a social app built around vertical short-form videos. It suits people who want a quick stream of entertainment, creators who publish and edit clips, and viewers who follow trends, interests, friends or live broadcasts. The app also combines product discovery and shopping with its video feed.

What you can do

• Browse a personalised feed of short videos based on your viewing and interaction history.
• Record, edit and publish clips using effects, filters, text, sounds and music available in the app.
• Watch or host LIVE streams and interact through comments and other audience features.
• Explore products from brands and creators through TikTok Shop, where available.
• Use controls such as screen-time settings and Family Pairing to manage how the app is used.

Scale and standing

In the Social category, TikTok is defined by the size of its audience and the speed at which content moves through the platform. It has a 4.03/5 rating from more than 68 million reviews and records 1,000,000,000+ installs. Those figures place it among the most widely used apps in its category, while the rating shows a broad but not uniform user response.

Developer

TikTok Pte. Ltd. develops the app under package name com.zhiliaoapp.musically. Its main experience is feed-led rather than message-led: open the app, watch a stream of clips, then respond by following accounts, commenting, sharing, creating or moving into LIVE and Shop sections.
