2018 marks a year of rapid growth and significant milestones for TikTok. In August, it was announced that TikTok and musical.ly would unite to create a new global app, becoming the world’s number one go-to destination for short-form video content creation and interaction, by empowering people to capture and share moments that matter in their lives. Most recently in October, TikTok became the number one downloaded app in the U.S. on both the Apple and Android App Stores, according to data from Sensor Tower.
