But what is TikTok - musical.ly?

It offers us versions for Android and iPhone with which we can create all kinds of videos with the music of our choice and that we can later share within the same app or through social networks and chat apps of the likes of WhatsApp.

But not just any old thing, but short 15-second videos of people recording themselves dancing, lip-synching, or fooling around during a song. And yes, as you can imagine, it's a real frenzy on Android and iPhone.

And how does it work?

And of course you have a button to record and share your own videos. You'll find it at the top of the interface and you just have to press it to be able to choose content from three different sources: from your music collection, from your library or from your camera, so record it yourself.

The songs can be taken from your gallery or you can use fragments of famous songs or hits of the moment. Then you can record the video in slow motion at high speed and create a time lapse... Just don't forget to hold the button.
