Social media app TikTok is preparing to launch a podcast app.
TikTok, which has over 1 billion monthly users and 138m monthly active US users, has recently registered a trademark for TikTok Music which includes the provision for podcast content; and the company is already talking to record companies.
TikTok’s parent company also owns Resso, a music streaming service in Brazil, India and Indonesia, which already carries podcasts from hosts like Libsyn.
