Thinking About Creating a TikTok-Like App

When TikTok took off, it wasn’t just hope and launch. It was based on a proper structure. And that same core structure can do wonders for your app as well. What’s included in that core structure that can make your TikTok-like app unforgettable:

Market size of Tiktok
0 Billion +
Growth rate
0 %
No. of downloads as of 2025
0 Billion +

Addictive, continuous, and endless engagement.

Still unsure whether you should invest in a TikTok-like app? Consider this case study example…

You must already be aware of an app named CLAPPER that has over 5M+ downloads till date, and has just surpassed 10 million monthly and 2 million daily active users in 2025. Apart from that, Clapper has expanded its reach into 40 countries in 2024. 

Why are we telling you this?

Because this app is a clone of TikTok. Meaning, Clapper’s core structure revolves around short video content, just like TikTok.

And, despite the fact that Clapper’s core structure is very much alike to TikTok, it has still managed to get over 10M+ monthly users and even managed to breakeven it’s costs in 2023.

Any Business. Any Niche. Benefit from TikTok’s Proven App Structure

Whether you sell products, take bookings, or run a paid community, a TikTok-style app can be tailored particularly around your business model.

Proof this model works: The BiteSight App

In 2024, a team out of New York built a food delivery app called BiteSight, and did something smart.

They used the same short-video format TikTok made famous, but focused specifically on food discovery through a personalized video feed.

Every video showed dishes from nearby restaurants. You could scroll, see what’s being liked the most, and order with just one tap. And because of that, just weeks after launch, BiteSight hit #18 overall and #2 in Food & Beverage category on the App Store.

The Takeaway Idea

TikTok had already figured out how to hook audiences non-stop. BiteSight took the food delivery idea, blended the two, and created a whole new business model. Something like a mix of  “TikTok meets DoorDash”

You can do the same; whether you sell sneakers, public speaking coaching, or cleaning services.
