The TikTok application recently made available the text posts feature that allows users to share their thoughts and opinions in a written way without the need to shoot video clips, which makes it a new competitor to both the “Threads” application that was recently launched by “Instagram” and the former “Twitter”.
The TikTok platform relies primarily on short video clips, but it is constantly evolving and adding many new features and options in terms of publishing content so that all groups can use it.
Text post feature
According to technology experts, there are some cases in which the text posts feature is useful to users, a feature that comes similar to “Instagram” stories, as both features allow creators to express their ideas through written text instead of video content or images.
In the past, TikTok content creators would post screenshots of the text they wrote in the Notes app to convey some information, but now, this can be easily done right within the app.
Reasons to use text posts on TikTok
1- Some content should be written as text: It is known to all that the “Tik Tok” platform is for videos, and although video content can show a lot of ideas, not all content is suitable to be shown as a video.
For example: written recipes cannot display well in TikTok videos, data and details of written advertisements may also be added in comments, and they are long and difficult to read, so text posts will be more appropriate in these cases.
2- Text posts are easy to create: Creating text posts has become faster and easier as compared to videos. Shooting and editing a video requires a lot of effort and time. With these text posts, you will not record anything, which saves you time.
You can also save editing time, as there is no editing of videos and adding music, you can simply add a text with a specific idea and edit it by adding a few stickers and changing the background color as you do in Instagram stories to make the post interesting and attractive.
3- Easy access to all categories: Text posts are useful for audiences of all ages, similar to the captions that are added to many short videos on TikTok, as the hearing impaired can benefit from reading written text and getting the idea across more clearly.
4- It makes your content more diverse: TikTok is no longer just a short video app, it is a place where fans can connect with creators in multiple ways not available on other platforms.
And if you are looking for more ways to communicate with your followers, you can mix videos, display images and text posts, and you can also conduct a live broadcast in “Tik Tok” to interact with your followers in real time, and if you want to develop your account and increase its spread, diversifying ways to provide content is the best way to achieve it.
