The creators said Tiktok has better algorithms, as well as the iconic “For You” page, where the content has the potential to draw more eyes, go viral, and grow viewers faster.
The reels debuted in the US at just the right time – exactly when Teaktok was taking heat from President Donald Trump, who has threatened to ban security concerns and its connection to the app in China if it didn’t land an American buyer Is sold.
The major similarities between the two apps (both allow users to edit music and effects as well as video clips), TicketLock’s prized editing features in the reels, are very short and short: reels the video in 15 seconds. While the length of Tiktok can be as much as one minute. Reels videos are also difficult to find on the Instagram app. Reels can be found in the Explore page, as well as on user feeds or stories, making it difficult to know if the content you’re viewing on Instagram is a reels or just a normal video post.
