TikTok is a social media platform used to create, share and discover short videos. The app is mostly used by the young as an outlet to express themselves through dancing, singing, comedy, and lip-syncing. It allows users to create and share videos across the world through smartphones.
When the user reaches 800 followers, the app allows him or her to go live which helps him or her to get various gifts from the audience or followers such as money and many others. It also provides an opportunity to collaborate with the companies who pay the TikTok user so as they advertise their new products.
