Considering how intertwined music discovery is with TikTok, it wouldn\u2019t be all that surprising if the company launched a music streaming app of its own. Well, patent filings uncovered by Insider<\/em><\/a> suggest TikTok\u2019s working on just that.<\/p>\n

TikTok\u2019s parent company, ByteDance, filed a trademark application<\/a> with the US Patent and Trademark Office for \u201cTikTok Music\u201d in May. According to the filing, the service would let users purchase, play, share, and download music. It would also allow users to create, share, and recommend playlists, comment on music, as well as livestream audio and video. ByteDance already filed for a \u201cTikTok Music\u201d trademark in Australia last November.<\/p>\n

ByteDance already has experience with music streaming. In 2020, ByteDance launched a music streaming app, Resso<\/a>, in India, Brazil, and Indonesia. Resso has some of the same features described in the \u201cTikTok Music\u201d filing, such as the ability to create playlists, share songs on social media, and interact with the app\u2019s community. <\/p>\n

ByteDance even uses TikTok to bring existing users to Resso. According to a report from The Information<\/em><\/a>, the TikTok app in Brazil comes with a button that redirects users to Resso so they can listen to the full version of a song they\u2019re interested in, a move that helps keep users within the ByteDance ecosystem.<\/p>\n

The Information<\/em> also reports that <\/em>Resso had over 40 million monthly users across India, Brazil, and Indonesia as of November 2021, a number that\u2019s likely to grow. Earlier this year, a report from Insider <\/em>revealed<\/a> <\/em>that Resso\u2019s monthly active users grew by 304 percent between January 2021 to January 2022 in India alone, as opposed to Spotify\u2019s 38 percent growth in the country during the same period of time.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear whether ByteDance plans on developing a music streaming app based on the Resso framework, or if it will come up with something else entirely. Just like TikTok had a profound impact<\/a> on the way social media sites operate, it\u2019s possible that a music streaming app with TikTok ties-ins could change the music streaming industry, forcing services to adapt.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
