Capture moments and share them with friends

TikTok Now is a free social and communication app from TIKTOK PTE. LTD. where you and your friends can share what you’re all up to at roughly the same time. This social networking platform will notify you and your friends at the same time to post on the app and you’ll each have to respond within three minutes.

Similar to BeReal, TikTok Now captures photos and 10-second videos with your front and back cameras at the same time. This allows your friends to get a better idea of where you are and see what’s around you at that very moment.

Share what’s happening right now

For users familiar with BeReal, TikTok Now is sure to be a breeze to navigate. Much like the former, this photo-sharing application only allows you to post once a day. The app automatically sends out notifications for all users to post at a specific time, and you’ll only have a short window of time to take a photo or video that you can share with your circle.

Your captured media will have timestamps on them to inform you and others viewing your post at exactly what time you sent it out. You also have to keep in mind that you won’t be able to see posts from other people until you’ve finished sending your own. Users can view all of their previous posts, as well, and scroll through all their memories from each specific day.

By allowing the use of both of your device’s cameras, this app makes sure you present real photos and videos from that very moment. This means that there’s no hiding what’s in front of you or who’s standing behind the camera. There’s also an explore page where you can find public posts shared by other users from all over the world.

A new way to catch up with friends

TikTok Now offers a unique take on your typical social media platforms by limiting the number of times you can post in a day. It also emphasizes the importance of sharing real-time moments as they happen by making use of your device’s cameras simultaneously. However, the window of time the app allows you to post is pretty narrow, so it’s easy for you to miss.
