To make the TikTok app better suited for the Apple Vision Pro, the company had to make some adjustments to its mobile app layout, such as moving the navigation bar and button off-screen to facilitate full video viewing and moving the comment section and creator profiles to the side of the feed for an immersive experience.

The app also works with Apple Vision Pro's Shared Space experience, which allows multiple apps to float side by side to allow users to perform multiple tasks simultaneously. This a big win for people who want to scroll through TikTok while performing other tasks on their mobile device.
If users really want to immerse themselves in TikTok scrolling, they have the option of watching the videos on a different planet: Thanks to Vision Pro's immersive environment, users can choose to scroll in different settings, including Yosemite or the moon.
Getting started with the Vision Pro TikTok app is easy. All Apple Vision Pro users have to do is download the app from the App Store and log into their TikTok account to get started.
