TikTok to expand DM options
Popular video-sharing app TikTok has expanded its DM features, including the ability to let any user message another.
The company began sending emails to TikTok users informing them of the recently added options to DM.
TikTok seems to be expanding into private messaging, as it comPetes with tech rivals, YouTube, which has an interactive comment section below each video.
Instagram and Snapchat have various public features, and one of their core is private messaging to users on the platform. TikTok's move can be interpreted as a step towards comPeting with social sites like Instagram, The Verge reported.
Through Settings, and then Privacy, users can access the DM options, and who can send them messages, from a list of suggested friends, mutual friends, and anyone, while filtering out suspicious spam messages.
The feature could instantly make TikTok a messaging app, enabling its users to DM their favorite creators.
