What is the ‘add yours’ feature on TikTok?
Similarly to Instagram, TikTok’s ‘add yours’ feature allows people to respond to a prompt on Stories with photos or videos.
The Add Yours button appears below your TikTok bio and lets you create prompt stickers that others can interact with. You can create a sticker that contains text, like “your favorite homecooked meal” or “your favorite summer memory”.
Then, you add photos or videos that relate to that caption. Others can then click on the prompt and add their own pictures.
