In parallel to the global phenomenon that is TikTok, a host of Chinese applications are jumping on the same bandwagon, with platforms for creating and sharing short videos with laughs, music and more. With over 400 million users and an upcoming stock market debut, Kuaishou is an outsider that's on the up.
After Douyin (of which TikTok is the international version) with its 600 million users, Kuaishou is China's next most popular short video sharing application. Like Douyin-TikTok, Kuaishou lets users edit clips easily with features such as animated filters, stickers and text.
