Sliding into your DMs, 32 at a time

TikTok is making a bold move into the messaging space by introducing group chats for up to 32 people.

This new feature allows users to share content, watch videos, and interact directly within the app, potentially challenging established players like WhatsApp and Apple’s Messages.

Safety first, fun second

Mindful of its younger user base, TikTok has implemented safety measures for teens aged 16-17.

These include mutual follower requirements and additional approval steps for joining group chats. The feature is restricted to users over 15, maintaining the platform’s commitment to user protection.

In addition to group chats, TikTok is rolling out custom stickers in DMs. This playful addition encourages users to create and share their stickers, further personalizing the messaging experience and keeping conversations lively and engaging.
