The company has been busy with other improvements besides expanding TikTok TV access. For example, it enabled livestreams last year.
That new feature allowed people to receive digital gifts from viewers. Then, they could convert those into real money.
As a result, it lets users earn more money from the video-sharing app. Also, TikTok encourages content creators to post longer videos to profit from its new Creativity Program.
Specifically, their clips should be longer than a minute so that they could earn from the Creator Fund.
It is similar to how the YouTube algorithm works. Most YouTubers post 10-minute videos to ensure they can earn ad revenue.
TikTok is well-known for its seconds-long videos, so some users became confused. Yet, the company insisted that long-form content is important for its long-term objectives.
The Creativity Program is open to a select group at the time of writing. A few months after enabling livestreams, the company announced it is testing a full-screen feature.
TikTok clips have a vertical orientation, so flipping your phone to a horizontal position would make it appear smaller in the middle of the screen.
The upcoming feature will adjust the aspect ratio so that the videos display properly regardless of screen orientation.
Aside from TikTok TV, the video posting platform will implement a 60-minute limit of daily screen time for users younger than 18 years of age.
Watch TikTok for more than an hour, and the app will require teen users to enter their passcode. Also, parents and guardians can use Family Pairing to control their usage.
