BBC News: Why is TikTok so popular around the world?

Recently, BBC News introduced why TikTok, a short video application, became popular all over the world.
The BBC News said that in western countries, you can see on TikTok that the teddy bear sang together with Adele's Someone Like You and some people made up potatoes.
More and more users with different backgrounds are using this short video application.
TikTok's videos generally do not exceed 15 seconds, and some high-quality creators can produce 59 second videos.
These videos belong to different themes, such as music, cooking, dance, fashion, etc.
TikTok provides users with tools such as special effects, filters and stickers that are easy to operate.
Paul Barnes, executive director of App Annie, a third-party application analysis company, said, "TikTok has formed a successful model that can make user generated content (UGC) into simple, accessible and professional videos." He believes that there have been some popular short video applications before, but it is difficult for users to produce high-quality and attractive videos without the help of devices other than smartphones, high-level professional skills and outstanding talent for performance.
"Compared with TikTok, its editing function is relatively simple, making it easier to make original videos." Figure: Jane Wakefield, a reporter for BBC science and technology affairs, showed the audience the video he used TikTok to shoot.
BBC News believed that TikTok was described as a happy place in the Internet world.
Unlike other video websites, the platform would have some "darker" content.
Munavar Zeb, 32, who lives in Surat, India, has used TikTok for more than a year and likes to release his videos on Sundays.
"I think the most attractive thing about TikTok is that everyone can perform, sing, and dance in front of the camera, gain different people's praise, and become famous.
I don't know about other people, but when someone likes my video, I will jump with joy." Laurie Elle from Manchester, England, has 2.5 million fans in TikTok and was invited to attend TikTok's offline activities.
She is a dancer, and the video is mainly about dancing.
She feels that TikTok is very easy to use, and can directly shoot with her mobile phone and add special effects.
"TikTok is very popular now.
It gives everyone the opportunity to create their own content with creativity." The BBC also mentioned that many TikTok videos and interesting pictures will appear on other websites.
These videos have TikTok watermarks, so that you can clearly know its source.
TikTok was launched worldwide in the summer of 2017, and was quickly loved by users around the world.
At present, TikTok covers more than 150 countries and regions in the world.
