TikTok<\/strong>, formerly known as Musical.ly, is a fast-growing video sharing platform. Ever since the Chinese firm Bytedance took over in 2017, we can\u2019t stop hearing about it. Now that you’re sure it’s not being banned anytime soon, we have another chance to learn about this <\/span>Vine<\/span>-type video app.<\/span><\/p>\n

For non-users (and the older generation), it\u2019s bad enough that we have to figure out how the app works. Do we have to face cryptic hashtags as soon as we log in? If you want to get to the bottom of this with us, we’ve got your back.<\/span><\/p>\n

What does \u201cFYP\u201d stand for?<\/b><\/h2>\n

FYP is an acronym, standing for ‘For You Page’ – a page curated of videos that TikTok thinks you\u2019ll enjoy watching. When you interact with content, the algorithm notices this action and pushes similar content to your For You Page. It\u2019s identical to the homepage or For You Page on <\/span>Instagram<\/span>, <\/span>YouTu<\/span>b<\/span>e<\/span>, or <\/span>Twitter<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why do people comment #FYP on TikTok?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Creators add the hashtag #FYP to their caption or comments in hopes of reaching the For You Page.\u00a0 It\u2019s a theory that content creators can use these tags to surface on the For You Page.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, reaching the famous Explore Page isn\u2019t as simple as a tag. Twitter explains that many factors influence the algorithm curation of the FYP, but adding the hashtag isn’t one of them. This method, along with other algorithm-related tips, has yet to be verified.<\/span><\/p>\n
