TikTok is stepping up its social media game by adding group chat functionality, a feature reminiscent of WhatsApp. With this update, TikTok users can now create and participate in group conversations directly within the app. This feature allows for easier communication, enabling users to share videos and discuss content in real-time with friends or groups.
By introducing group chats, TikTok is evolving from a simple video-sharing platform into a more robust social network. This new feature makes it easier for users to stay connected, collaborate on content, and engage in more meaningful interactions—all without needing to switch between apps.
This move aligns TikTok with other social platforms like WhatsApp and Instagram, which have long had messaging and group chat features. TikTok’s goal seems clear: to keep users within its ecosystem for longer periods, offering them more reasons to engage beyond just scrolling through videos.
