“In addition, it can prioritize entertainment over educational depth, which can make it harder to fully communicate value in a teaching or coaching context.“

### "Terrific TikTok"

April 9, 2026

5.0

Overall I love TikTok and I will always use it, I have been a user of TikTok before it was even called TikTok! I have always loved this app and I will always love it. I never have any issues with it and I use it pretty much every single day!

Pros

I like that you can view all kinds of different videos and from all around the world. I think that TikTok has an amazing value for money as well as customer support, and I never have any issues or bugs with it. It is very easy to use and you can customize it however you want. Great music and audio and you can make your own sounds as well. Screen sharing is also super easy to do!

Cons

The only con that I have with TikTok personally is that there are so many sponsored videos on my feed, which I do not love, but I can just scroll past them and it is no big deal at all!

### "A Great Way To Waste Time"

July 10, 2025

1.0

TikTok was a great place dissociate and disconnect from the world around me, learning about atrocities one second and seeing the most unhinged meme the next. It is emotional whiplash and it was unhealthy for me to use - I am glad I left.

Pros

I loved doom-scrolling on it, and commenting on/interacting with various kinds of content and people, and sending throngs of videos to my friends and family.

Cons

I hate that it took away my attention span, that it is essentially Coco Melon for adults. I despise that it runs on hate, that there are "sides" of TikTok that are just dogwhistles and nazis, and that they coexist on the same platform that queer people do. I hate that they shadowban people speaking against injustice, or people of color just for being people of color, or the same for queer content creators. I hate that they can revoke accounts at the tip of a hat, for no reason.

### "A great platform for exponential rewards, but beware of time"

June 30, 2025

4.0

Overall, I've started using TikTok exclusively for work and It's immediately clear the potential it has. It takes time and dedication to produce content and understand what works and what doesn't. It's an amazing tool or organic growth, if done correctly. Beware, it's easy to get distracted into doomscrolling while you work.

Pros

It's a great tool to use for business, to grow your business. It requires lots of commitment and basic skills, but the rewards of organic growth are by far the best. The best thing is that it's free. You can start, experiment, understand what works and go viral for free. Great for B2C mostly, but also B2B if done in the correct way

Cons

It takes a little bit of learning to understand what works and what not. If you're a professional, sometimes you have to tone down the level of communication by way more than you'd expect. Virality trends are always changing and you need to "scroll" a lot to see what works and what sticks. Easy to waste time by blending work and entertainment

### "TikTok is Just So Easy"

March 8, 2026

4.0

Overall it's great. I like using it a lot and find the videos to be more authentic that YouTube videos

Pros

The videos are short. I'm very impatient so don't like watching really long videos especially when they spend the first 5 min telling me to subscribe and like their videos

Cons

Sometimes the videos say they're going to tell me something but the video ends without them getting to what they were going to tell me.

### "By far the best platform to share and watch short videos"

April 16, 2026

5.0

Overall, I love Tiktok the way it is providing creators a platform to showcase their talent and potentially make some side money. From a viewer perspective though, I'm abit doubtful whether it is adding any value.

Pros

What I like most about Tiktok is how it is providing an opportunity for creators to make money out of the platform by showcasing their talent. Moreover, I like how their algorithm is designed - if people like your video, it goes viral overnight, doesn't take long to hit 1M in views. Insane!

Cons

From a creator perspective, I wish Tiktok start rolling out Tiktok Creator funds program to more and more countries. I think right now it is limited to 4-5 countries only. That way, it could get more and more quality creators join the platform.

### "for the promotion of our restaurant"

March 6, 2026

5.0

Pros

To promote our restaurant and reach a wider audience online, TikTok has been a useful platform. It allows us to showcase dishes, events, and the atmosphere of the restaurant in a creative way. The built-in editing tools make it relatively simple to create engaging short videos.

Cons

Maintaining visibility requires posting content consistently, which can take time. Trends also change quickly, so it takes effort to stay relevant on the platform.

I generally enjoy making and consuming content on Tik Tok. I find it pretty easy to create good short form content with the video maker they have.

Pros

I enjoy the fun format and ease of use. It is a very creative way to express yourself or your business ideas and gain support and followers.

### "TikTok - Creative and Fun, with Room to Improve"

July 23, 2025

4.0

Overall, my experience with TikTok was positive. The app is fun, easy to use, and offers great value for money. I enjoyed the wide range of music and audio, and the customization options made content creation enjoyable. While there were occasional bugs and issues, they didn’t heavily impact my use. Customer support could be improved, but the engaging features and creative tools made it a great platform overall.

Pros

What I liked most about TikTok was its Ease of Use and Customization Options. The interface is intuitive, making it easy to browse, create, and edit videos—even for beginners

Cons

Occasional bugs and issues like crashes were frustrating, and customer support was slow. Privacy customization could be better, even though the app offers good value for money.

### "make money on tiktok hihi"

July 2, 2025

5.0

I started using TikTok just for entertainment, but the more I used it, the more I realized how smart the algorithm is. It quickly figured out the type of content I like – from funny videos and trending topics to what the community is currently interested in – and recommended them with impressive accuracy. Overall, it’s great and definitely worth experiencing.

Pros

The algorithm is smart – it knows exactly what I want to watch and always prioritizes videos of that type. Especially trending, humorous videos or topics that people are interested in – I get to see them all. Most importantly, I also create videos and have made some money from TikTok. It’s not much, but it’s enough to make me happy

Cons

When I add a shopping cart to my video, it gets fewer views. But if I don’t attach a cart, the views are much higher. I don’t understand why

Pros

Tik Tok is great. It allows me to put things out there while having an extensive audience from every corner of the world.

January 27, 2025

Overall, it seems like a very engaging platform that thrives on creativity, humor, and empathy.

Pros

What I find interesting is how the platform allows creativity to flow in unexpected ways. From viral challenges to super-short educational videos, it's fascinating how people can express so much in such short clips.

Cons

There is a lot of great content, some trends or challenges may promote harmful behavior or misinformation.

Pros

Highly personalized algorithm. Creative tools. Incredible organic reach. Diverse and engaged community. Inspiration and learning.

Cons

Very busy interface. Unclear navigation outside the feed. Limited search tool. Comments and replies poorly organized. Limited in-app video editor.

### "tiktok fair survey after a long everyday schedule utilizing period"

December 28, 2024

5.0

My involvement in Tik Tok from around 2019 is portrayed by fun and entertainment. I always spend a pretty good time during the day. Thanks a lot to everyone who contributed to this wonderful app. A great way to get customers to purchase my books and find more fans. It also helps with collaborations with other authors.

Pros

I think it is fantastic to have this product for people to share their life with you. To make money with this app, it is really so effortless. I love the way I can engage my audience in such a beautiful way through live telecom or via the comment section of my video post. Application is so friendly and its features are mind-blowing. Literally, the most euphoria I get from using this app is having a video supervisor who does an outstanding highlight reel. I encourage people; take advantage of the stage and be gutsy, to really use it for the growth of your endeavors.

Cons

The main problem with TikTok is that it takes so much of the daytime! really hard to stop using it. Sometimes a whole video is created, but if I don't like the first part I have no ability to change it, I have to recreate the whole video. It's hard to make custom edits in the app.

### "The Power of TikTok: Language Learning and Real-Life Insights"

October 10, 2024

5.0

My overall experience with TikTok has been quite enriching over the past three years. I have an account dedicated to sharing short videos of German films, complete with subtitles in both English and Arabic, aimed at helping those who wish to learn the German language. Additionally, TikTok has been a valuable source of real-life information that often goes unaddressed by traditional TV channels. However, it’s crucial to approach this information with caution, carefully selecting credible sources to ensure accuracy.

Pros

One aspect of TikTok that I appreciate the most is its role as a platform for creativity and self-expression. It also serves as a means for exchanging customs and traditions between cultures, helping to bring the world closer together.

Cons

What I like least about TikTok is the misinformation that can sometimes come from unverified sources. This occurs when these sources attempt to exploit the platform for specific purposes or agendas.

overall this software has helped us in many way to engage prospective customers and increase the brand reach in some specified areas all over the world. we received very good brand traffic for our brand by uploading some nice educational short video reels and live streaming and i can say this is the best platform to increase the brand reach organically.

Pros

TikTok has some of the best video filters, templates to create the engaging videos and live streaming for the brand which give us the very good brand reach and engagement for our brand and the user interface is very smoot

Cons

sometimes we face the communication issues with the global customer support team.

February 7, 2025

4.0

I look at TikTok at least once-a-day, killing time, but having a decent experience at the same time. Some of the posts have you in stitches with the content creator's observations on life.

Pros

TikTok is entertaining and you can have a good laugh at some of the content, but there is also a serious side, with educational content and current news. I quite like to save tips and tricks for decorating, cooking and cleaning. If something is in the news, you can be sure there will be additional coverage on TikTok.

Cons

Not quite got the hang of saving/bookmarking posts. The bookmarks don't seem to save in the order of adding. I typically share a link to my iPhone messages.

### "Tiktok has it all. "

October 3, 2024

5.0

Tiktok has been an amazing app for several reasons. I enjoy the ability to connect with people I know on a more personal level because of what they share. The tiktok shop has a lot of great products and offers several ways to pay. They've also partnered with several shippers so the items arrive very quickly and they have a great return policy. Lastly if you are a beginner, making simple videos is very easy by simply clicking the plus button and then selecting the maximum length of your video.

Pros

What I enjoy most is the ability to follow people who's interest you enjoy. When you click on the tab, you will find the most recent videos they've made and you can continue to scroll and watch until you're caught up. If you accidentally close out of a video and need to find it, you can go to the search bar, type a period and the videos you've watched will be there in order.

Cons

I wish we had the ability to play and listen to videos while not in the app. There was a recent glitch or issue where I was only able to see "for you" videos and the shopping cart. You also have to use outside apps to make nice videos using your photographs instead of in the app.
