How Does TikTok’s New Stitch Option Work?

Stitch is the name of the new tool available on TikTok. An option with which users can create reactions and new content based on that published by other users of the platform. A kind of Duo, although with some other nuance. So let’s see how it works exactly.

This is how Stitch from TikTok works

Along with many other things, such as making content easy and fast to consume, originality and that viral point that is so popular , one of the key ideas of TikTok has also been to encourage interaction among its users. Hence, in addition to all the tools that almost everyone already knows, Duo played an important role in recent months. Since it allowed to generate new content from that published by other users.

Well, now comes a new option that they have called Stitch and we could say that it is basically the same as Duo, only with some difference or “limitation”. And is that the idea here is none other than to cause chain reactions.

That is, when you find content published by another user, you can take a part of it and then stitch your own. Thus, what you would have would be that, a kind of reaction to what you have previously shown and that can be from a dance to an explanation or anything else. The possibilities are practically endless, since they depend on the starting point.

With this new function, any content can drive new trends, referrals and endless additional content. But it is still easier if we see how it works and some examples so that you understand what the whole thing is about.

How to create your first content with Stitch from TikTok

To use the Stitch function on TikTok , the first thing you should know is how to access this new tool. To do this, all you have to do is go to the share button within the application and then click on the Stitch icon while you are viewing the publication of another tiktoker that has caught your attention for any reason.

Once you have given Share and Stitch, the next step is to select up to a maximum of five seconds of the content you have seen. For example, when you give an opinion, do a certain dance step or whatever else you want to use as a starting point for your reaction and that, in turn, will serve to locate the user who sees your publication. So you know what it is about or why you do or say such a thing.

That five-second fragment can be adjusted with some controls offered by the application for greater precision. Once you have it, the next step is to record your reaction in the same way that you could do to upload a tiktok to your account. If it is interesting to know that if a song is playing during the opening segment, it will continue to play during your recording of the reaction.

Now that you have everything, the only thing left is to publish and see what happens. If your reaction encourages others to do the same with your published or original content. Anyway, here it will depend on how the community of tiktokers is experimenting with the new option and find possibilities that were not raised from the company initially.
