Understanding the Pros and Cons of Using TikTok

TikTok is a widely known app that allows the user to create short video clips. It works by music playing in the background and the person creating the video will do some entertaining acts – singing, acting, or dancing to get more likes and views from other TikTok users. Some users end up buying views just to attract more views and make their clip look entertaining.

Aside from background music, there are also fun filters that you can add to your video clip to make it look more attractive. It is no wonder why TikTok is increasingly becoming more and more popular each day. However, this does not mean that using TikTok does not have risks. In this article, we will walk you through the pros and cons of using TikTok

Pros of Using TikTok

Increase Popularity

This is one of the primary reasons why people are using Tiktok. It is easy to gain popularity since millions of people all over the world are producing and consuming content on the app.  Users are producing short clips that will make them like the video.

Portfolio

You can also make a wonderful portfolio of short clips for your career in the future. By making videos of your skills, you can earn loyal followers. For instance, if your talent is dancing, you can show the world how great you are at dancing and you might get discovered.

Cons of Using Twitter

Pipe Dream

TikTok users who devote their time and effort in making videos to gain popularity might waste their time if they do not become a sensation. The chances of becoming one are incredibly low considering the huge number of users who are really talented.  On the bright side, if you are just making videos for fun, then it will not be a problem

Students

Some parents see TikTok as a problem especially if their child spends most of their time using it, instead of focusing on their studies. Control is your biggest strength. That being said, you must know how to balance your time.
