"TikTok just announced a couple of updates that that should make the app a bit more social. There's something called Shared Feed, which is exactly what it sounds like. It's a feed that friends and family can watch together, though at different times. This feed is shared via direct messaging and pulls up relevant content to everyone involved in the chat. TikTok says this is a "new way to discover content together.""
"These feeds are shared via invitation and the participants can leave the chat at any time. There's also a new dashboard that lets viewers check out their Shared Like history and other metrics. The Shared Feed tool rolls out globally in the coming months. It sounds similar to something Instagram began offering earlier this year. Instagram is typically the one copying TikTok, so this is a nice change of pace."
"TikTok has also announced something called Shared Collections. This is like the aforementioned Shared Feed, but for saved content. The tool lets users collect, organize and share groups of videos, with TikTok citing that people could use it to share reading lists, local restaurants to try and, of course, products to buy. All you have to do is save a video, create a Shared Collection and send that list to someone else via direct message."
TikTok introduced Shared Feed, a daily curated selection of 15 videos that friends and family can watch together via direct messages at different times. Shared Feed pulls up relevant content for everyone in the chat, supports invitations, and lets participants leave anytime. A new dashboard shows Shared Like history and other metrics. Shared Collections allow users to save, organize, and share groups of videos as lists for reading recommendations, restaurants, or shopping; users must follow one another to access lists. Shared Collections are available globally for users aged 16 and older. Themed holiday cards for direct messages will roll out later this month.
