You ever watch a TikTok video where the on-screen text or other detail is obscured by the username, the profile bubble, the like count, hashtags, description, etc?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There may soon be a solution \u2013 check this<\/a> out:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"smm<\/p>\n

As you can see in these screenshots, posted by <\/span><\/span>@aj_malakai<\/a> (and shared by Matt Navarra<\/a>), TikTok is currently testing a new \u2018Clear Mode\u2019 option, which, when selected, would display your chosen video without the app function buttons and video description details on screen.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

That could improve the viewing experience overall, but there could also be some negatives in this revised UI approach.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For one, it would make likes, comments and sharing less immediate, which could reduce engagement, while it would also open up opportunities for screenshots without the user details on screen, which could lead to new conflicts with TikTok\u2019s creator community (TikTok\u2019s already working to appease creators on the revenue front<\/a>).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

And then there are TikTok\u2019s ad content and in-stream shopping options. Removing these would directly harm TikTok\u2019s business – so in many ways, it seems like a potentially good idea for users, but not a great one from any other perspective.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s likely why TikTok\u2019s relatively non-committal about the trial at present.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As reported by TechCrunch<\/a>:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em>TikTok said it doesn\u2019t have much to share on the test at this time. Considering clear mode is in limited testing, it\u2019s unknown when or if TikTok plans to roll it out more widely.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I would hazard a guess that this won\u2019t ever get released, and if it does, it will only be available on an individual video basis, so you won\u2019t be able to make it your default viewing setting. Which means that you\u2019d need to tap through and switch to Clear Mode every time you want to use it, which most people just won\u2019t do.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Considering that, maybe it could get a launch, if TikTok sees that it won\u2019t cause major disruption to its metrics. But still, it seems risky.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

But, it\u2019s a possibility, and it could be a handy option to have in situations where the content is obscured by the various buttons and text. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s not much info as yet, but we\u2019ll keep you updated on any progress.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
