TikTok's sister app is about to launch in the US
It's called Lemon8. Think of it as Instagram - with its focus on text and images - but powered by the TikTok algorithm, and focused on fashion, beauty and lifestyle. It seems to be heavily skewed towards shoppable experiences. It launched in Japan in 2020. Bytedance has been reaching out to content creators to get them to start posting on the app offering up stipends, placements and more. Lemon8 is available to download from the app stores, but it has not been formally launched in the US. It is available in the UK, Singapore and Indonesia.
