Short video app TikTok has recently unveiled a new developer program containing tools that allow third-party developers to integrate their apps onto the platform, TechCrunch reported. Details: The main tool in the program is a “Share to TikTok” software development kit (SDK), which allows users to edit videos in apps that partner with TikTok to publish directly to the short-video platform. Other apps that have teamed up with TikTok include image-animating app Plotaverse, augmented reality tool Fuse.it, gaming highlights recorder Medal, and three others. Teaming with third-party apps opens user data to other parties and could increase risk of data privacy violations such as the Cambridge Analytica debacle that Facebook grappled with, according to a Bloomberg report. Context: Lawmakers in the US have been suspicious of TikTok’s data security protocols.
