By July this year, TikTok had been downloaded More Than three billion times, according to data company Sensor Tower.

The Social Network , which is owned by a Chinese company called Bytedance, now has More Than one billion active users across The World , and that number continues to grow.

In China, to comply with the country's censorship rules, the app is called Douyin, and runs on a different network.

Douyin was originally released in September 2016. This year, China ruled that users under the Age Of 14 would be limited to 40 Minutes A Day on The Platform .

Security concerns

TikTok was launched internationally in 2018, after merging with another Chinese Social Media service, Musical. ly, an app which allowed users to share videos of themselves lip-synching to songs.

The Social Media platform is no stranger to controversy. In 2019, it garnered a temporary ban in India, a US counter-intelligence investigation and a record £4. 3m fine after Musical. ly was found to have knowingly hosted content published by under-age users.

As one of the only internationally successful Chinese apps, politicians and regulators outside China have raised concerns about security and privacy.

Last Year TikTok was forced to deny it is controlled by the Chinese government.

Theo Bertram, TikTok's head of public policy for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, said it would refuse any request from China to hand over data.

The app hosts a variety of short videos, covering genres such as comedy, dance and politics.

This year @Francis. Bourgeois, with 1. 6 million followers, quit his job to become a full-time trainspotter as a result of his viral videos at railway stations talking about trains and cheering them as they pass.

Expanding

Food and recipe videos have become a key part of TikTok's success, with viral clips getting millions of views.

As a result, in the US, a new food delivery service called TikTok Kitchen will launch in March, allowing people to order dishes originally created in viral videos.

The Menu will be based on the app's most viral food trends and will include courses like the baked feta pasta which was ranked The Most searched dish of 2021 by Google.

TikTok Kitchen is being co-founded by Robert Earl , who owns the US food outlets Planet Hollywood , Buca di Beppo and Bertucci's.
