TikTok beats Facebook - over 700 million downloads

Music video app TikTok soared to new heights in 2019 with more than 700 million downloads, beating Facebook and Messenger, and behind only WhatsApp’s more than 850 million downloads.

Axar.az reports citing DigitalТrends that India remained TikTok’s top market throughout 2019, with 44% of the year’s downloads, despite a brief ban by the country’s government in April. Downloads in China, the home market of the app’s owner Bytedance, declined since its peak in March 2018, but the country was responsible for 78% of the app’s revenue in the fourth quarter of 2019.

TikTok allows users to take short videos of themselves, to which they can attach sounds or music. The app also offers other customization options such as filters, stickers, and special effects.
