TikTok is currently experiencing outages.

Here’s the revised content with the specified changes:

If you're trying to load or watch videos on TikTok and it's not refreshing quite right, you're not alone. So, is TikTok down? It sure seems like it. Around 4:08 EST on May 15, users started noticing that things were not quite right on the TikTok app, according to Down Detector. By around 5 p.m. EST, more than 33,000 users reported errors with their TikTok app on Down Detector.

When we tried to bring up TikTok, we were able to load some videos, but only intermittently. We also repeatedly received loading screens.

Meanwhile, users on X are not happy.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

It's unclear what, exactly, is causing the app to glitch. TikTok did not immediately respond to a request for comment. We'll update this post if we receive more information. In the meantime, you can check our platform for the latest user error reports. While TikTok was briefly banned in the United States earlier this year, we have no reason to believe this outage is related to that ongoing political dispute.
