TikTok 12+

This app connected the world

I love this app so much because of how it has been able to let me experience the entire world like as if I were standing right there next to people. I have seen places I never would have seen without this app. And I am so grateful. I have walked the streets of different cities, as if I were there at eye-level, I have seen in villages and towns, and restaurants and experienced the food with my eyes. I have witnessed peoples stories and struggles and injustices and personal wins and their families and their pets. This app truly is amazing. All of the amazing independent businesses and views into peoples businesses all through this app, not to mention the TikTok shop, which has brought some of the most amazing and fun products to us all to share together. The different friends I have made on here and that I “hang out with “when they go live, all the different amazing people that go live doing amazing different things unique only to TikTok. I can’t say enough amazing things and I hope the band doesn’t go through. It would not be fair to only let a few social media platforms have all the power, especially when they are supposedly taking our information as well. fingers crossed for the best.

Drafts Button

I love this app. I think it’s a great way to connect with people of similar interests and create a unifying experience for everyone. I’ve always thought of the app as very easy to use and accessible to all people (especially with the captions added to the app), but the new update that caused the drafts button to shrink has been a big problem to many creators. People are fond of their privacy, yet they still love the idea of making videos. This leads to many creators making little cringy videos that they would then just save to their drafts to post later or to just save the sound. Many have that muscle memory of just automatically clicking the middle of the drafts button, but because of this new update, they have been accidentally posting their drafts. Not only is this a nuisance to mentally check every time that you are not posting a draft, but it can be very compromising to creators who need videos to be only saved in their drafts, away from their followers. These people would be minors or others who are uncomfortable with their face being public, Islamic women who like making videos with their hair but cannot show their hair to the public for religious reasons, and others who make videos for themselves and not for the public eye. This new update has caused a lot of frustration in the community and as an enjoyer of this app, I, and the whole community, would please like it if the drafts button was changed to its original size.
