I just gave my 11 year old niece who lives with me a phone, she has an app on her phone (TIK TOK w/ musical.ly) What exactly is it? I looked it up but I am still not sure. Do the short videos travel all over the world? Can anyone see them and talk to her about them? With everything going on I get a little worried. She has been with me since she was in kindergarten and I worry. Can anyone tell me if this app is okay? Thanks guys

I would say that there are many provocative/inappropriate videos on TikTok for an 11 year old to view. Just my 2 cents...It's an app that cannot be easily monitored by parents/guardians.

I guess I will have to take closer and more frequent looks at her phone, thanks.

The best app including music ly, with emojis and stickers with personal video sharing, especially making and sharing funny videos. Nowadays it most popular among the Android users.

Steve, thanks for the very sobering links. We should all be concerned about our and especially our children's data privacy.
