How to Download Douyin on iOS and Android | Thumb-Grabber
TikTok is a social media app that is popular in the whole world. It is a video-sharing app where users can share short videos of themselves. The app is similar to Instagram and Snapchat but offers video content only.
Douyin is the Chinese version of TikTok. And, it is only available for the Chinese.
Bytedance’s Douyin is quite similar to the international TikTok software, but it has been able to distinguish the two by following China’s local rules.
The primary distinction between the two is that TikTok outside of China does not include a “wallet” feature, allowing users to make purchases in a few taps inside the app. Users of Douyin may purchase products, movie tickets, move money to others, and conduct transactions via a QR Code.
