musical ly is an Android utility designed for sharing videos, live streaming, and communicating. This social platform has eventually ceased to exist. Active users were transferred to TikTok application.
Functionality
Unlike TikTok, this application was mainly focused on music and lip-syncing. Here users could create short-form videos for up to 1 minute with various background tracks.
There were several speed options, including slow motion, time-lapse, epic, and others. In addition, users could add effects and filters to videos for more creative visuals.
Streaming
There was an option to start a live stream and communicate with people in the chat. Here users could also lip-sync to their favorite songs.
While watching the live stream, viewers could support their favorite creators by sending monetary gifts.
To buy gifts for your favorite creators you had to purchase coins within the app. A partial value of the gift was transferred to users in the form of monetary support.
Current state
musical ly and TikTok utilities were eventually merged in August 2018. The official website is now unavailable as well as the app.
As a result, more than 100 million user accounts were transferred to TikTok.
