One way to use TikTok is by navigating to its website. Here you can simply watch the different videos uploaded by other users. You will have the advantage of watching on a bigger screen if your main objective is merely to watch videos.

  • Go to www.tiktok.com.
  • On the upper right corner, you will see the Watch now button. Click it to go to the main video feeds.
  • You also have the option to log in to your account. On the upper right corner, click Login and sign in your username and password. You will then be directed to your home screen.

How to Upload Videos on TikTok using PC or Mac

If you plan to upload your own videos instead of just watching others, you can do so using your Windows 10 PC or MacOS computer.

  • First log in to your TikTok account on your browser.
  • On the upper right corner, click the cloud icon.
  • Choose Select video to upload.
  • Now, choose the edited video file from your computer and start the upload.
  • When it is done, you can edit your video post and click Upload.

Unfortunately, the TikTok website does not have video editing features like in the mobile app. You will need to edit your video before uploading it to TikTok.
