I’m here to talk about a procedure to download TikTok Now for PC. I’m aware that this app’s officially available for smartphones, so I’ll introduce a different method to help you get the app’s services on your computer.
TikTok Now is developed to help people share their live moments with others. With its help, users can publish their real selfies and short videos with others.
One of the many good features of this application is that it’s totally free to use. And it cares for a user’s privacy. While publishing a photo or short video, you get to decide whether to publish it publically or privately.
TikTok decided to add this feature after the success of the BeReal app. But it’s still missing some features like notifying a user correctly when their moment has come to share their real moments.
However, it’s a good thing for some users, especially for the ones who don’t want to get bothered by any app notifications. And, want to publish their activities and moments, whenever they please.
