TikTok seems to be the latest to join the movement of social media platforms that have added similar stories to Snapchat. Like any other platform, Stories on TikTok will also be fleeting and will automatically disappear within XNUMX hours. The feature was first spotted by social media consultant Matt Navarra and later officially confirmed by TikTok in an email to The Verge noting that it was indeed testing the feature with a handful of users. TikTok says: “We are currently experimenting with ways to give authors auxiliary formats to bring their creative ideas to life for the TikTok community. The feature will simply be called TikTok Stories and it seems to have been around for some time. < p lang="en" dir="ltr">Introducing TikTok Stories ✨🔥Plot twist! H/t @amanfirdaus pic.twitter.com/gvQMzixYtS XNUMXth Aug XNUMX See More TikTok has added a slider sidebar to house stories and the stories from the accounts you follow can be viewed in this newly added sidebar. To post a new story, users will need to hit the camera button on this sidebar. Users will also be able to post content: images or videos that they have created from the phone's library. Once the content is created, you can also add multiple elements such as text, sound, stickers or effects. If released, TikTok Stories will be free as well as other features like Duets, Live and Stitch and it will work like Stories on another platform. Users will be able to see the number and names of viewers on the story, and TikTok will also allow users to read and reply to comments left by the viewer. However, TikTok does not know when the function will be available to the public. Before TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, WhatsApp and Twitter copied the functionality of Snapchat. The last one was Twitter which, after launching fleets and playing with the idea of monetizing them, has already deleted it. While implementation across most of the rest felt natural, Twitter seemed confused with Fleets and settled on the feature as it didn't see much traction. That being said, stories for other platforms have given users a simple way to share their thoughts and express themselves without worrying that the content is still on the profile.
