There's A New Social Media App Coming For TikTok - & It's Just For College Students
Briefly

As the April 5 deadline approaches for TikTok's potential ban in the U.S., various alternative apps have emerged, including Connyct, which launched in February. Designed solely for college students, Connyct emphasizes authentic connections over commercial influence, featuring a '4U' page akin to TikTok's but with an added 'events' page for social gatherings. The app is ad-free and requires a .edu email for verification, bringing students together with an extensive music catalog through a partnership with Warner Music Group.
Connyct fosters authentic engagement to bring people together and to 'Connyct,' the platform's founder and CEO, Matt Berman, stated in a press release.
While still a short-form video app that functions with a '4U' page very similar to TikTok, the main difference lies in the app's 'events' page.
The app has partnered with Warner Music Group to offer a large catalog of licensed music available for users.
Upon first opening the app, one can see that it has a distinctly different vibe from other apps, specifically because it's not inundated with advertisements.
