In fact, more people are dropping conventional social media like Facebook for the improved scrolling mechanism that TikTok employs. Capitalists are taking note, and Amazon is bringing out a<strong> new Amazon Inspire app<\/strong> that will function with a similar format.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This move comes as a way to accelerate the voracity at which people engage in online shopping. To this end, <a href=\"https:\/\/amazon-mobile.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Amazon <\/a>is currently testing a TikTok-like feed for showcasing its products in the new Inspire app. The app intends to make<strong> discovering new products<\/strong> even easier with a scrolling photo feed instead of the conventional thumbnail-based system that most retail apps use.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new Inspire app will be available on both iOS and Android platforms and will offer compelling video content in addition to supporting photos. This will lead to the app looking like more of a hybrid between Instagram and Tiktok, taking advantage of the features of both social media phenomena. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As you can on Instagram, you\u2019ll be able to simply <strong>double-tap<\/strong> anywhere on the Inspire app interface to like particular products. You\u2019ll also have access to a vertical scroll as on TikTok so that you can discover more content more quickly. According to productivity experts, the TikTok scroll is also more efficient on device battery usage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Amazon is bringing out TikTok for shopping\" class=\"wp-image-207773\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-664x374.jpg 664w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-436x246.jpg 436w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-304x170.jpg 304w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2022\/12\/Amazon-is-bringing-out-TikTok-for-shopping.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All you need to do is download the Inspire app from our app repository, and then select topics and categories that interest you. You\u2019ll then see a <strong>feed <\/strong>similar to that on <a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram <\/a>and TikTok, but in way that you can interact with products you like instantly. You\u2019ll also be able to toggle the description space and learn more about products that you think you\u2019d like to purchase.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The experience is expected to roll out to select US shoppers in early December.
