Looking for a TikTok alternative? Try Byte.
Byte is a short video app from the creator of Vine that is available for Android and iOS. The premise is simple: users create 6-second looping video clips and share them with their followers.
You can upload a video you've already recorded to the app or create clips using the built-in camera. You can also download videos you like and then share them on other social media platforms.
While Vine had little competition when it launched in 2012, Byte finds itself in a more crowded market, with TikTok as one of its biggest rivals. Byte’s biggest advantage is the nostalgia factor. Vine, its now-defunct predecessor, is much-loved. That app has lived on in some form through compilation videos posted to YouTube and other video sites.
