After updating TikTok app a few days ago, the latter started acting weird, what do i do?
TikTok has been one of the most fascinating social media since more than a year now, and just like every other application worldwide, it has its own flaws. This time, due to the app update, we noticed that it started operating in a peculiar manner.
Actually, due to an update carried out on July 1st, 2021, we neither can subscribe, nor like or share videos.
We applied the following measures when we noticed this problem in order to ensure that the problem is not our back end.
- Verify the state of the internet connection. Most often, internet connection problems creates instability of other applications, if faced with this problem, try to have a stable connection and reduce the number of applications currently using internet connection in order to function. As for me I am using Wi-Fi and the connection is quite stable on my phone and other connected devices;
- Verify that the phone’s RAM isn’t overloaded. If that’s the case, delete backgrounds applications, close TikTok and restart the application.
- In a case where it’s neither of the above, please restart your smartphone.
