TikTok Footnotes

TikTok is trying out a new feature called Footnotes, a new feature that will give users more context about content on the platform.

Footnotes will draw on the collective knowledge of the TikTok community by allowing you to add relevant information to content.

This will add to the platform’s suite of measures that help users understand the reliability of content and access authoritative sources.

Currently, this feature is only being tested in the US for short form videos, with a plan to roll it out more widely in the future.

To apply to be a Footnotes contributor, you must have been on TikTok for more than 6 months, be at least 18 years old, and have no violations against Community Guidelines.
