When I first downloaded TikTok at the start of the pandemic, I assumed it was a silly app where kids danced. But I was intrigued because a lot of my friends were on it.
Since then, I have realized that tons of adults and parents are on TikTok. With over one billion users worldwide, watching TikTok has become a very popular pastime. Plus, one of the best features of TikTok is the For You Page, which is specifically made for each user and has an algorithm that accurately (most of the time) shows the user the types of videos they enjoy.
