Most people watch videos with the sound on, so most of the time you will not want your TikTok video to end up with nothing to tell. Text overlays are easily customizable and can be resized, dragged, and changed in typeface and color. If you&#8217;re having trouble deciding what to write in your video, you can try using one of the templates available online.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Videos_are_up_to_60_seconds_long\"><\/span>Videos are up to 60 seconds long<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re a frequent TikTok user, you&#8217;ve probably noticed that the maximum length of videos is 60 seconds. Now, the video platform has boosted its maximum length to three minutes. Creators will have three times the length of previous videos and the freedom to edit their videos inside the app. With this change, TikTok is setting itself apart from the competition in the short-form vertical video market. Instagram, Facebook, and Snapchat all limit the length of their videos to a maximum of sixty seconds, and Facebook stories are limited to just sixty seconds.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_add_text\"><\/span>You can add text<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One of the hottest trends on the TikTok app is adding text to videos. Text overlays on videos can be a great way to personalize your video content. You can choose how long to add the text and where to place it. Then, use the text editing options on the right-hand panel to add more text. You can even synchronize your text with audio. Here&#8217;s how.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_add_audio\"><\/span>You can add audio<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Many video sharing apps have audio features, and TikTok is no exception. You can use the sounds from another video in your TikTok video, or you can record your own audio from a song. The more shareable the audio, the more likely people will see your video and click on it. Here are some tips to get your TikTok audio to be shared. Read on to learn more.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_add_a_template\"><\/span>You can add a template<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When you want to make your own videos, you can use the TikTok app. You can choose from a number of templates. You can edit the video to add your brand colors and logo. Unlike the normal TikTok app, the template allows you to customize the video with text, stickers, and filters. You can also choose the background color and add your own logo. After uploading your video, you can download it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_add_voice_effects\"><\/span>You can add voice effects<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to create a unique video with a little extra zing, you can add voice effects to your TikTok videos. Voice effects can be funny, robotic, animal, or autotuned &#8211; the possibilities are endless. But how do you add them? Here are some tips:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_edit\"><\/span>You can edit<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To create a stunning TikTok video, you can use a desktop video editor. The software you use for this task is called TikTok editor, and it comes with many tools for creating and editing videos on the social networking platform. TikTok editors are available in different versions, and you can use Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, Apple iMovie, or VideoPad to create and edit your videos. You can also upload your videos to the TikTok browser application, where you can also schedule your videos to be posted up to 10 days in advance.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_search_for_creators\"><\/span>You can search for creators<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re new to TikTok, you&#8217;ve probably wondered how to search for videos and other content on the app. In fact, you can easily search for videos based on hashtags and other keywords. The app allows you to search by hashtag or username, and it prioritizes the top results. If you&#8217;re looking for a specific person or video, you can search for them by name by tapping the magnifying glass at the top of the screen.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"You_can_get_comments\"><\/span>You can get comments<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you are trying to make a TikTok video, you may be wondering how to get comments.
