The Tik Tok reverse video feature is quite similar to Instagram’s boomerang. The only difference is that Boomerang puts your short clips in an endless loop. Tik Tok’s reverse, on the other hand, simply plays your videos in reverse.
Both, however, are a fun way of adding a twist to your videos and making them less linear and more catchy.
For this to work, you will never the Tik Tok app preinstalled on your Android or iOS device. And of course, you will need a prerecorded video you want to apply this special effect on. You can either have it saved in your gallery or record it directly from your Tik Tok camera app.
In this tutorial, we will also mention some third-party apps that you can use to reverse Tik Tok videos. They are equally effective and quite easy to navigate.
