Tiktok, a short video hosting service owned by Chinese Internet company ByteDance, is set to launch a new app that will rival Mark Zuckerberg’s Instagram.
In a notification sent to users via email, TikTok announced the launch of “a new app for photo posts” named TikTok Notes.
TikTok also acknowledged that the app was developed and users have started receiving pop-up notifications regarding a new photo-sharing app called TikTok Notes.
According to the notification, previous photo posts of users would be shared on TikTok Notes, a “new app for photo posts” that the firm is about to launch. Also, users have the option to withhold their image posts from the new app.
TikTok stated that it’s “exploring ways to empower our community to create and share their creativity with photos and text in a dedicated space for those formats”, but it didn’t state when the app would be launched.
