Soon you may find yourself literally stepping into the world of TikTok’s top trends thanks to augmented reality.

Social media giant TikTok is testing an experimental set of developer tools for their proposed upcoming platform coined TikTok Effect Studio.

Currently in private beta testing, the proposed program could one day see TikTokenators building Augmented Reality (AR) effects simply from their PC or laptop. 

The trending video-sharing platform joins its rivals Snapchat and Facebook who have also developed their own AR initiatives.

Snapchat’s Lens and Facebook’s Spark AR studios entices users to create filters in which they can apply to their photos. 

Public service announcement for those keen on signing up!

Those yearning for the platform can submit an expression of interest through a sign-up page already available on the web. 

Those that do register will be asked for the user’s name, email, TikTok user account, the user’s level of AR experience as well as their intentions for the platform. 

There is very minimal information about the platform, with the site appearing to be in its early stages of development. 

“We’re always thinking about new ways to bring value to our community and enrich the TikTok experience,” a TikTok spokesperson told TechCrunch. 

“Currently, we’re experimenting with ways to give creators additional tools to bring their creative ideas to life for the TikTok community.”
