TikTok will already entertain you on Android TV

TikTok is already used by several million users worldwide. After the new one, this new social network will also be available on devices with Android TV. However, there is one catch. While the app can already be downloaded from the Play Store, it may not allow you to do so. The TikTok application is launched regionally, so it will probably take a while for it to come to us as well.

TikTok on Android TV: The same environment you’re used to

Yes, the design of TikTok on TV is not fundamentally different from that on mobile. The videos are (unfortunately) played in a vertical view and you also have your own timeline here, after which you can scroll in the same way as on a mobile phone.

“TikToku’s short videos are fun, original and creative. From now on, we are gradually bringing this entertaining content to your TV. Whether you are a sports fan, a pet enthusiast or just looking for fun, everyone will find something for themselves on TikTok. Just look, deal with what you like, skip what you don’t like, and find an endless stream of short videos that are tailored just for you. Everything from the comfort of your couch.“

Logging in is very simple, you just need to scan the QR code via mobile phone or enter the code from the screen, GizmoChina recalls.

For example, the United States reports that TikTok is still not available on Android TV devices. However, you can expect different results from installing on a Chromecast, XDA said.

TikTok itself did not comment on availability, so it is not clear where, when or who will be able to install TikTok. Maybe just wait a few days and the whole world will be able to enjoy it on Android TV.

But beware, TikTok is still an out-of-place platform, especially when it comes to security. In just the last half year, we have written about at least two security scandals. One concerning the collection of MAC addresses is no longer relevant, but the collection of other data is such a problem that TikTok was called to court for 12-year-old girls.
