The growth of TikTok shows no sign of decreasing and with it the influence it is having on the services that make up today's Internet and, above all, on our way of being online. The short video application, launched in 2018 after the merger with Musical.ly, can boast over 1 billion monthly active users. Currently the third social hub in the world after Facebook (2.9 billion monthly active users) and YouTube/Instagram (both 2 billion visitors in the first case and users in the second). If we add to the billion Westerners the over 600 million users of Douyin, its Chinese counterpart, we will have an empire that is aiming to become the most relevant in the world. In terms of time spent, the ByteDance app would have already surpassed Facebook, at least in the United States, where users use it for 44 minutes ( in our country we are still far from establishing the primacy of Zuckerberg's apps).
All apps want to clone TikTok The appreciation of users has led India Mobile Number Data many applications, large and small, to copy some peculiar characteristics of TikTok in the hope of being able to clone its success too. Not only the format of the short videos, accompanied by an audio track (often musical or vocal), but also the user experience: the full-screen feed, the continuous vertical scroll with very few overlapping UI elements, the ease of use in any situation (everything you can do is just a thumb away). Now Instagram and Facebook have Reels (but they could also adopt the vertical immersive format), YouTube has Shorts, Snapchat has Spotlight, Reddit has a video feed that mimics the vertical scrolling of TikTok. Twitter, Spotify and even the New York Times are testing this addictive visualization.
There is also no shortage of smaller applications in the most disparate sectors which, by copying UI/UX and formats, try to enchant the new generations: Playhouse (real estate), Snack e Feels (dating), Supergreat (beauty), Flip (wellness) , Bullz (finance), ShopShops (live shopping). But since TikTok's success is also due to its " communist algorithm ", the race has started to understand how it works and to copy that too. Zuckerberg made it clear that his recommendation system will be modified to give less space to “family & friends” content, as has been the case so far, and “more chance for other interesting content to emerge” (more popular? or even those that have more likely to become one as happens with ByteDance apps?).
