With the recent update to iOS 15 the TikTok app has gained a new feature: Landscape mode. However, this new feature could be taken away if the app’s developers don’t like the way the iPad layout looks. While many users prefer landscape mode, the new feature could limit the app’s pool of users.
TekTok is now operating in a sideways orientation on iPads
In a recent update, TikTok has changed its iPad orientation to a sideways orientation. This change has been met with mixed reactions. While many users are happy to see a change, others are frustrated by the change. Despite the recent changes, many users have expressed confusion about how to use the application in sideways mode. Users have long been accustomed to operating in portrait mode on their iPads. While the company claims that the change was made to improve the overall experience of the app, there is a legitimate concern about how users will react.
Luckily, a recent update to the TikTok app has made the app more user-friendly. While the landscape mode works best on the iPad, it’s not as easy to navigate through social networks. Now, if you’re a big fan of this type of content, the TikTok app has an option that allows you to watch videos in a sideways orientation. While it’s a good thing that the app is compatible with iPads, it’s important to note that the app is still designed for portrait mode on iPhones.
Fortunately, this change is not too major. TekTok has also changed its orientation, so when you open the app on an iPad, the screen will open in landscape mode instead of portrait mode. While the company hasn’t said why they changed this, the change is likely to improve the way users interact with TikTok on iPads. Landscape mode also allows TikTok to make use of the iPad’s full screen. The new orientation makes the app more user-friendly and gives users a different experience when watching TikTok videos.
One major reason why TikTok made the change is that many users use their iPads in landscape mode. The change in orientation isn’t a huge deal, but it’s worth noting. In fact, many users of the social media platform have said that they prefer to use the app in landscape mode over portrait mode.
It blocks the rest of the screen with black bars
When you’re watching a video, you may not always want to watch the entire thing. But there are times when it might be more practical to have two apps open at once, such as when you’re doing research for a presentation or working on a project. With the Tiktok landscape iPad, you don’t have to worry about sacrificing your viewing experience. The black bars will be on the sides instead of blocking your entire screen. You can close one app at a time by sliding the divider over it.
It resents landscape views
When the TikTok app first launched on the iPad, it was only available in portrait mode. This limited its functionality – users couldn’t tilt the screen sideways while using the keyboard. In addition, it wasted significant screen space. Now, it has been updated to support landscape views on the iPad.
The new update makes the TikTok app compatible with iOS 15 devices. However, it is still unclear whether TikTok will retain this updated feature. Many users use their iPad in landscape mode. In fact, the social media giants have made landscape view the default mode for iPad users.
