Meanwhile, according to The Verge report, Thursday, December 3, the additional duration of the video is still in the early stages of testing. TikTok also hasn't announced when the app update will be rolled out.
Although it is in the testing phase and has not yet been rolled out globally. A number of TikTok users have found several uploaded videos with a longer duration than usual.
As is known, TikTok is synonymous with short video content which is no more than a minute. The video format is considered successful in attracting social media users compared to long-duration impressions on YouTube.
Of course, with a longer duration span, TikTok creators can have more time to create creative content. For example, making movie reviews or makeup tutorials, which are generally on YouTube.
On the other hand, the presence of the TikTok video format that has successfully attracted the interest of its users has begun to be followed by many social media platforms. For example, Instagram, which recently presented the Reels feature with a content duration of about 15 to 30 seconds.
