Until today we have done several guides on TikTok on what are the keys to achieve success on the platform or also some tips to use the social network with peace of mind. And today we bring you a guide on an option that few users know about.
In this guide we will explain how you can access TikTok without having to download the application step by step on the smartphone. Most of today's social networks do not limit access to their platforms with their application, otherwise they will not get more users to join, which is really their main objective. And it is that depending on the users they have, there will be many ads that are displayed on their platforms, and these are the main source of income from social networks.
Is it essential to have a TikTok account?
Before starting to use an account, be it a social network, forum, etc., it is first necessary to create an account with an email in which all the activity takes place. These platforms obtain the usage data in addition to knowing the IP from where the account is used.
If there is the option of being able to use specific email accounts to test this type of platform for a while and find out if you like everything it offers to want to create an account. If so, you can create a new account or also change the specific email for that address that you use more often.
However if you just want to gossip on TikTok, you won't need to create an account, Although not having a registered account also imposes limitations such as not being able to interact with publications, download videos, in addition to the most important limitations such as not being able to upload videos, use filters or music, earn money by watching TikTok videos, etc.
Here's how you can get into TikTok without downloading the app
TikTok was created primarily for mobile devices, although from the desktop browser you will be able to control all the functions offered by the application such as searching for content, creating or also a much more limited option is to upload content.
When you access from a pc web browser, you have the advantage that without having an account you will be able to download videos or other content thanks to the extensions that Chrome has (and that you can download from the Web Chrome Store). A good application that offers quality results with the TikTok video download It's TikTok Full, a free application available in Chrome, in Microsoft Edge Chromium or also in browsers based on Chromium.
At the moment these applications are only available in Chrome from the web version of the browser, although only for the moment since this has been one of the main problems that the Android web browser has had. Some of the browsers that allow you to install extensions are Samsung Internet Explorer or Brave, which are extensions limited to what the developers offer. This means that it is not a limitation of Android, but rather of Google.
If you want to access TikTok through the mobile browser, you will be able to do it without problem and without the need to have an account, but if you want to download videos then you will need a computer since at the moment there are no extensions in mobile browsers to download the videos and for this you will have to do it yes or yes from the application official
You can also access TikTok through a link or also from a publication by another user and without having the official application. Although as we told you in a few paragraphs above, if you want to comment or like the publication you will have to have a temporary or permanent account, and if what you want is to download a video it is important that you know that it is only possible by having the official application or from the computer's web browser with the TikTokFull extension installed.
Access through a link works similar to that of twitter when you do not log in with an account or also like Facebook, but this has many limitations since the social network aims to have as many registered as possible.
What data does the app consume
If you often use this social network, you should know that both the access through the web browser and the application, the data consumption is the same, and that is The TikTok feed is just a browser that allows you to access the same content as on the web.
To achieve reduce data consumption when using TikTok the only possible way to do this is by using the Chrome browser. And it is that a very interesting function of Chrome allows you to save data when browsing the web. This feature is natively active and works simply:
When you enter a web page, Google's servers display all the content so the images and videos on the page are compressed. Once the files are compressed, they arrive directly at the device and this is how data consumption savings are achieved in an application in which videos are its main source of content.
This function takes just a few seconds to perform and the truth is that the result is really good since you will hardly notice a difference between using TikTok with a browser than with Chrome. And you always have to bear in mind that being connected to a Wi-Fi network whenever possible is the most important thing when using this type of social network.
As you may have seen, there are different ways to log into TikTok in a simple way to be able to see all the videos available on the popular social network without having to register at any time. And seeing the possibilities offered by this complete app, the truth is that it is well worth trying it and, if you like it, end up making an account.
