Tiktok owns Added some new DM featuresincluding the ability to send one-minute voice notes, as well as extended image and video sharing, including one-to-one messaging and group chat.
First, on the audio message. Tiktok users now have the option to create long audio clips from their composer options by holding down the microphone icon side by side in the text box.
The process provides a simple UI to record and send audio messages, but be careful because once you post the microphone button, you can send that audio as a message.
like Tiktok:
“When recording voice messages, you can choose:
- release Record Button Send
- Slide to delete recordings
- Swipe up to lock the recording and continue recording without pressing and holding, then click send Button Send or delete The buttons are to be discarded. ”
So once the post button is sent immediately, you can also delete the voice message within 3 minutes of sending it.
This could be a quick and easy way to add more personality or respond quickly to DMs, giving you more options for direct communication.
It also brings Tiktok’s DM elements into more with message tools in other applications More and more people are participating through private messagesthis may be a valuable addition.
Tiktok can also provide users with sending up to 9 images or videos as attachments for DMS by selecting them from the camera roll, or capturing them using the Tiktok camera.
This is another measure to bring Tiktok’s messaging tools more to the market, and it makes sense to have the popularity of messaging as a connection option.
As mentioned earlier TechCrunchTiktok also added a critical security feature that users cannot Send an image or video as its initial message request. Tiktok DMS is also not suitable for users under the age of 16 at all, and combined, these restrictions should reduce harmful abuse of DM.
From a broader perspective, these features are rather smaller features, which most users would expect now in DM elements. As a result, they are in line with the wider usage changes, and Tiktok gradually established its messaging options to meet this need. Tiktok has also added over the past year Group Chat,,,,, Broadcast Channel for brand information, and DMS during live broadcast.
These new updates provide more capabilities in this regard, which may allow more people to engage in more activities in the app.
