About TikTok
TikTok is the world's leading short-form video platform, where creators share entertaining, educational, and inspiring content ranging from 15 seconds to 10 minutes. The For You page uses one of the most sophisticated recommendation algorithms in tech to serve you an endless, personalized feed of content you'll love.
Creating content is easy with TikTok's powerful built-in editing tools — filters, effects, text overlays, green screen, duets, stitches, and a massive library of trending sounds and music. The platform has launched countless trends, songs, and careers, making it a cultural force.
TikTok Shop integrates e-commerce directly into the feed, and TikTok LIVE lets creators connect with audiences in real-time. For businesses, TikTok Ads Manager provides powerful targeting for reaching the platform's 1.5+ billion monthly active users.

User Reviews
Built my entire brand on TikTok — went from 0 to 500K followers in 8 months. The organic reach is unmatched. The editing tools are actually better than most third-party apps. If you're a creator, this is where you need to be.
The algorithm is scary good at knowing what I want to watch. I've learned cooking recipes, home repair tips, and financial advice all from TikTok. Just need to set a timer or I'll be on it for 3 hours straight.
TikTok Shop has been incredible for my jewelry business. I went viral with one video and sold out my entire inventory. The built-in shopping features make it so easy for viewers to purchase right from the video.
