TikTok is a popular platform for creating and watching short music videos with various effects, masks and filters. Access to it is possible both through a browser (website tiktok.com) and through a mobile application for Android and iOS devices.

Consider how to install the Tik Tok application on your phone for free, successfully register a new account or enter an already created profile.

Where can I get the old version of Tik Tok

Previous versions of the TikTok app can be found on the Trashbox and other gaming forums. They are downloaded and installed in the same way as the current versions.

Is it possible to do without installing the application

In order to use all the basic functions of TikTok, it is not necessary to install a social network mobile application on your phone. It is enough to go to the web version of the site, available at www.tiktok.com, and go through a quick authorization there. The only thing that cannot be done in the browser version of Tik Tok is to post your own video.

Why can’t install TikTok

Failures and errors when installing TikTok are extremely rare, and most often they are not related to the social network itself or the application store used. Possible causes of the problem include:

There is not enough free space in the device memory to install a new application. In this case, the best solution would be to clean the Gallery from unnecessary pictures and videos, remove unused programs and games. If we are talking about a smartphone with a small amount of memory, it is worth downloading a simplified version of TikTok.

The smartphone does not meet the system requirements of the application. Here it is worth trying to download an old version of the social network from the browser – perhaps it will work with the current OS.

Lack of stable network access. Check your internet connection, connect to Wi-Fi if possible, and try to start the installation again.

In some cases, for example, when a specific error occurs in the Play Store, the procedure for solving the problem should be clarified with Google technical support. The same goes for the App Store.

Stop or uninstall the application

If you no longer use TikTok and do not want the social network application to take up space in the device’s memory, you should simply delete it. To do this is simple:

Go to the settings of your smartphone and select the “All applications” section.

When you find TikTok in the list, open the extended menu by clicking on the social network icon.

Click on the “Delete” button and confirm your actions.

When you stop the application, it will remain on the smartphone, but at the same time it will stop consuming its resources in large quantities. To stop TikTok on your smartphone, instead of the “Delete” button in the application menu, select the “Stop” option.

You can download TikTok to your smartphone for free using the Play Market or App Store, depending on the installed operating system. In addition, users of Android devices have access to a way to download a social network through an .apk downloaded in a browser.
