TikTok's latest feature is similar to something you've seen before, but with a twist. By Taylor Kamnetz Culver City, California – TikTok is trying out a new "stories" feature in efforts to become the best and most-encompassing version of itself. TikTok is testing out a new "stories" feature similar to that of Snapchat and Instagram.  © IMAGO / ANP Though many other social media platforms have either tried or successfully added a "stories" feature to their app, TikTok appears to be making up for time lost.The new feature, simply called "TikTok Stories," was first spotted by Twitter user and social media commentator Matt Navarra on August 4. The app's latest update appears to work similarly to Snapchat's story feature that Instagram later copied. TikTok Stories lives in its own slide-over sidebar within the app, where users will be able to view stories posted by accounts they follow for 24 hours, when they will be automatically deleted. Those who share stories have the option to delete them from their account prior to auto-deletion.Just like on Snapchat and Instagram, TikTok users will be able to reply or react to stories they view, and can easily watch anyone's stories by simply tapping on their profile…

The number of children treated for cannabis poisoning has almost tripled as the craze for drug-laced sweets grips schools. Dealers sell them on social media sites popular with kids like TikTok. Hundreds of youngsters are being rushed to A&E every year with heart palpitations, anxiety attacks, paranoia and hallucinations. Eating drugged sweets, dubbed "edibles", means the effects are slower than with smoking but last for hours. One 12-year-old tried a Nerds sweet she knew was drugged but had no idea how powerful it would be until the "high" kicked in hours later. She said: "I was completely freaking out, my stomach flipped, my head was spinning. I couldn’t stop crying. I was convinced I was going to die and it’s not something I ever want to go through again." Eating drugged sweets, dubbed "edibles", means the effects are slower than with smoking Her mum added: "Her little heart was racing at a million miles an hour and she kept telling us she couldn’t breathe and had pains in her chest.

  Published On 07 August,2021 02:56 pm Snap does not share any birth information with other parties on an individual level: spokesperson (Reuters) - Thousands of social media users have shared a misinformed claim that Snapchat knows the date and time of birth of its users. However, this appears to be a misunderstanding: the company told Reuters that this data has been keyed in by users themselves. One post on Facebook has been shared nearly 10,000 times since Aug. 2 and asks whether their friends and followers are aware that Snapchat “somehow knows what time you were born”. It includes a screenshot of the Snapchat platform which appears to list the person’s date, time and location of birth under a heading that reads: “My Astrological Birthday”. Multiple other people have since posted similar remarks on Facebook and Twitter, with one writing: “I’m totally freaked out by this how would they get that information and what else are they looking at on your phone”. Snapchat’s astrological feature was launched in Nov. 2020 and claims to give users a profile that’s “far beyond what you see in a daily horoscope”. The company says it uses birth information to reveal personality traits and the…

"I had a primary school reach out with girls on Snapchat who had left Snap Map on and random men sending them a screenshot of their address," Susan told The Examiner. "It can be a particularly dangerous app. It is an app of choice of predators which we have seen time and time again. "Every parent I have dealt with who has had an issue on Snapchat with predators firmly wishes they can turn the clock back and wishes they said no. "Don't put your child in a known place of risk.
