Vestel, a European consumer electronics company, has announced that its expansive range of Smart TVs will now integrate the popular video-sharing app, TikTok. The new collaboration will see Vestel integrate TikTok into over 20 premium TV brands, including those belonging to its own portfolio.
The integrated app has been specifically designed for TV and is already accessible through Android Smart TVs ranges in France, Germany, and the UK. According to Vestel, the TV-specific app will display TikTok content in high resolution, bringing more detail, color, and vibrancy to the screen while allowing for a "larger-than-life home viewing experience."
“With the addition of TikTok to our Smart TV ranges, customers will now be able to access all the latest user-generated content from TikTok just as easily as TV series from the most popular streaming apps," said Barış Altınkaya, Vestel Vice President of Marketing and Product Management.
