The worldwide popular video service is expanding its audience and increasing the number of devices on which you can watch funny and dance videos. TikTok's takeover of the world began in Europe. It first became available on smart TVs in the UK, Germany, and France. It made it to the US and Canada this month. The service owners and Amazon have made an agreement according to which users of Fire TV devices can install a special TikTok application on televisions.
Conveniently, you don't need to have an account to do it. You can download the app and sign in right on the spot. If you have a TikTok mobile profile, just log in to it on your TV. In terms of functionality, this option is no different from the smartphone and tablet edition. There are also three main tabs ("For You," "Following," and "Discover") that you can switch between manually or using Amazon's proprietary assistant. Ask Alexa to launch the application and control the launch of videos using your voice.
Whether it is really what Internet users around the world want is unclear. However, given the service's popularity, it will definitely benefit it. We are sure that many of the 1 billion active members will be happy to watch clips on their big screens every day. The question is how convenient it will be to view vertical videos on horizontal monitors.
This feature will also appear on Echo Show displays soon. We believe that in the future, the list of available devices will become even larger. After all, in Europe, you can watch TikTok on Samsung, Google-, and Android-based TVs. LG smart TVs will also be added to this list shortly.
The release of TikTok on TVs is an unexpected move, isn't it? Are you going to get it? How much time do you spend on the mobile app? Please share your opinion on this news in the comments.
