TikTok quietly launched a GIF-like ‘video stickers’ feature for direct messages

GIFs are certainly one of the most used features that is available on social media and messaging apps today. They make communication fun and visual for many users due to the wide range of humorous and expressive images that enable users to express their emotions in a more creative way.

TikTok, the popular short video-sharing social media platform has recently announced the launch of their new feature – Video Stickers – that works similar to GIFs but instead of a single image, it consists of a short looping video clip.

These video stickers are meant to be used in direct messages to make communication more interesting for users. They’re easy to use and can convey more meaning with their animation. Additionally, users can also animate still images to create their own Video Stickers to send to their contacts or followers.

The Video Stickers feature allows users to customize the look and feel of their messages by adding colors and textures to their stickers as well as using predefined categories. The feature allows users to easily find the perfect sticker for every situation. It also helps to bring users’ conversations to life by allowing them to reach out to their contacts with creative visuals.

The feature has been designed with privacy in mind so users can send their messages without worrying about their data. It is also completely free to use and is already live on TikTok.

Overall, the Video Stickers on TikTok make it an even more engaging platform while keeping user privacy in check. It is definitely a great addition to the TikTok experience and with its various customization options, it makes it a great alternative to GIFs.
