Initially, TikTok let creators make 15-second videos. It isn’t compulsory, of course, but you’re missing out if you’re not contributing. Its real strength lies in helping you create your own video, perform some basic editing, and then uploading it to the site. It’s a shortcut to content that you may or may not want to use.īrowsing and consuming media is only a tiny part of Tik Tok. Once you have been using TikTok for a bit and have liked a few videos, you will see the Following tab at the top of the main screen, which will feature videos from the people who made the videos you liked. TikTok uses your likes and follows to build up a profile of what you like watching and what you don’t and will tune your For You feed accordingly. If the user has several videos you like, you can follow them by selecting their name and add them to your feed. If you like the video, you can like it by tapping on the heart icon on the right or add a comment with the speech bubble. You can search by trending hashtags, most popular users, hot songs, or videos. If you want to look around, hit the magnifying glass icon at the bottom of the screen to search. If you play a video, it will loop until you stop it or choose another. Select one to watch and like it if you want, to show your appreciation.

Once you log in, you should see the ‘For You’ feed which lists the most popular videos right now. You’re in and can now start enjoying the social network.

Providing your phone number is also a good way to secure your account and make sure you can get your account back. While this isn’t something you have to provide, you can’t send messages to other users without it. TikTok will then ask you to provide a working phone number. Set up your account by following the wizard.
