TikTok 12+

Overall, I enjoy this app. I’ve been on here since the fall of 2018, I’m a loyal user. However, recently this app was not working properly for me because I was unable to see the instagram icon on other accounts that I follow and have known in the past that the instagram icon was on their profile. And even after updating this app to the most current version, this problem was still not resolved. I went to the settings in the app and looked up in their report a problem section to see if there was anything I could do about this glitch, and it told me I had to uninstall and reinstall the app to fix any possible issues, so I did. But what it didn’t tell me is that I would lose my drafts I created. So, I basically lost all my videos I was making progress on and editing because of an issue I did not cause myself. Totally unfair! I created those drafts for a reason and logging out or reinstalling the app shouldn’t just get rid of the videos I created and saved to my drafts on my account! Nobody should have to lose what may be minutes or hours spent on creating content for their followers all because they temporarily logged out, ridiculous. At least I’m able to see the instagram icon now, but at what cost...Tiktok, fix this.

This app is amazing! It is a great way to cure boredom, though it is hard to stop scrolling. I love how there are settings to make sure children see appropriate content, but can still enjoy the app. There is only one thing I would like to be added that I have wanted multiple times. Let me explain. When you make a TikTok you can sort it into what I call “folders” (I don’t know what they are actually called). People can see that the video is in a folder, and can open the folder to see more videos that are in the same category as that one. If you already have the app you should know what I’m talking about. Anyways, I have found myself wishing, multiple times, that you could follow a folder to see the content you saw and liked in the folder, and not have to follow the account. I think this would be great because sometimes you want to see certain content from a person but they don’t always post only that content. For example, if I find a person that makes videos doing pranks I like and I want to see more of those pranks, it would be nice to be able to follow a folder where they do only pranks instead of having to follow the account, since then you would be seeing more than just their pranks. I’m sorry if any of that was confusing. I tried my best to say what I was thinking. I think this feature would be nice so people could see more of the content they like. Otherwise this is an amazing app I am glad to have. Thank you for taking the time to read this!

I’ve been on Tik Tok since 2018, and have been aware of it ever since it was both Musically and Vine. And it is by far one of the best social media apps out there. You don’t even need to post anything to have fun with it..there’s endless content from endless creators, and there’s always something to brighten up your day. It’s also super easy to make your own content without even leaving the app, and you can share your favorite videos just about anywhere. However, I do have a few suggestions.

First of all, you need to update the guidelines, because tons of creators get their accounts banned for no reason when terrible people who actually need their accounts to be banned remain on the app. Try paying attention to reports from users. Second of all, I highly suggest allowing users with private accounts to put their videos into playlists! Some people don’t want just anyone following them and viewing their content, but they also want to store their similar videos together (I have a private account and this would make all the difference). And finally, I suggest adding folders for your favorited sounds, similar to how there are now folders for favorited videos. It would definitely make it easier to find sounds I want to use. If any developer took the time to read this review, thank you!! Overall, I still love Tik Tok and will continue to use it if these suggestions aren’t used.
