The app itself has been downloaded over 2 billion times worldwide from both Google Play and Apple’s app store.
For those who haven’t already heard of it, it’s a creative video platform where users can make short videos about anything using music, filters, and many other tools. These videos can then be shared privately or publicly depending on the user’s choice.
One thing to bear in mind if you are considering getting TikTok is that there have been potential security/ privacy risks with the app and multiple hearings in the US have taken place surrounding this matter.
2 – Disney Plus
Another App that jumped on the popularity train during the early months of the pandemic was Disney Plus.
