How to Add Effects to a TikTok Video
TikTok effects are used by both casual users and popular social media influencers to make their videos more engaging and entertaining. You can also add photos to your videos. Here’s how to add video effects on TikTok.
How to Add Filters to a TikTok Video
While effects on TikTok are used to create dynamic or creative visuals, TikTok filters are used to make more subtle changes and function in much the same way as photo filters on Instagram. The default effect category is Visual. To view effects from other categories, tap the category name under the circles.
Where’s the TikTok Sparkle Filter?
One of the trendiest filters on TikTok is the one that adds shiny sparkles over the video. This can be hard to find because it’s not a filter, it’s an effect, and can be found in the Effects menu. There also isn’t actually an effect named Sparkle. TikTok users who have videos with a sparkle effect likely used one or more of the following TikTok effects:

All of these effects are within the Visual category.
How to Add Text to a TikTok Video
Adding text to a TikTok video is fairly straightforward and is done in a similar way to how you add text to an Instagram Story.
