In a simple and practical way, thanks to a blue identification tag.

The “Stories” function of TikTok does not seem to have been fully developed yet, yet some interesting news about it has already been leaked. In the camera mode, in fact, the option comes recognized as “Quick”, which means the platform hasn’t found the right name yet.
