Tik Tok has been one of the most successful apps in the past year for creating short videos. It has become so popular that over 800 million users have joined TiK Tok in the past few years, increasing by 15% every year. Due to its immense popularity, Facebook created an app called 'Lasso' to try and compete with it in Brazil. However, YouTube is currently working on adding a new feature to the YouTube App that can compete with Tik Tok.

This new feature, called "Shorts", allows you to upload short videos on the YouTube Mobile App's feed, like those videos, and subscribe to the content creator. It is now reported that YouTube has taken this facility to a select group of people.

The 'Shorts' feature enables users to choose their favorite song and create their own video from a large number of licensed music tracks already added to YouTube. Below are a few screenshots showing when this latest feature was added to a YouTube user account.
