About
TikTok is a leading short-form video platform that has revolutionized social media entertainment globally. Launched internationally in 2017, the app enables users to create, share, and discover 15-second to 10-minute videos featuring music, filters, effects, and creative tools. With over 1 billion monthly active users, TikTok has become a cultural phenomenon, particularly popular among Gen Z and millennials for its viral dance challenges, comedy skits, educational content, and influencer culture. The platform's algorithm-driven 'For You' page delivers highly personalized content, making it incredibly addictive and engaging.
