What is TikTok?
With more than a billion users around the globe, video-centered social media platform TikTok has been sweeping our generation with its innovative challenges.
From viral dances to smooth transition trends, TikTok allows one to share not only the perfect social media life but also some vulnerability.
With a new concept called For You page, TikTok created an algorithmic feed based on your own interests.
Unlike other social media platforms such as Facebook or Instagram, which focuses on your friends or family members you voluntarily followed, TikTok allows one to explore their For You page and discover new, creative content from all over the world.
TikTok created some of the most viral stars today, including Charli D’Amelio, Addison Rae, and Bella Poarch.
