What is a streak pet on TikTok and how do I get one?
TIKTOK has a new streak pet to reveal just how loyal you are in sending videos to friends.
The social media app is providing a little pet for each streak milestone – here’s how you get it.
What is a streak pet?
Streaks are earned through direct messaging and the frequency in which you send videos to your friends.
Social media apps love to use streaks to drive user interaction on their platforms, which TikTok is taking a step further.
Those who hold streaks will be provided with a visual reward system rather than just a number – revealing a sweet little pet.
These digital pets will popup in messages between you and the person you hold a streak with.
Interacting with your pal will provide care for your “streak pet” and all of its needs.
How do I get a streak pet?
First, ensure your TikTok is completely up-to-date to get a streak pet.
Then you can start building up your streak with a friend.
An option will then appear near the text box that will make you click “streak pet”.
TikTok will provide you with instructions on how to take care of your streak pet – all of which require consistent interaction.
Then it is on you to keep your streak up which will keep your streak pet alive and well.
TikTok trends to try
TikTok has become home for not just dancing but various comedy trends too.
One of them is is the viral hear me out cake challenge that people love to play – some even on their birthday.
Sometimes referred to as the “smash cake challenge”, “hear me out” involves people thinking about who they would smash or pass from a list of celebs.
The twist on the cake is instead of having candles, people will use cut out images of their favourite celebrities faces.
Another TikTok challenge that has gone viral is the Just Give Me My Money trend.
This is a prank where participants say the phrase “just give me my money” in a bizarre voice before cheering and applauding -except for one person, who is left out intentionally.
