Code suggests that TikTok could be building an app for photos

ByteDance might be looking at creating an Instagram competitor named TikTok Photos, code found in the TikTok app suggests.

According to the description in the APK version 33.8.4, this app could cater to “like-minded people who enjoy photo posts.” “Whether you’re a world traveler, food blogger, or simply enjoy sharing what’s going on in your life, TikTok Photos is our all-new photo-sharing platform dedicated to helping creators like you reach other like-minded people,” the description reads. The Bytedance-owned platform is competing on multiple fronts as it is planning to take on the likes of YouTube with 30-minute-long videos.
