Hot Off the Feed: TikTok's Flip Story, A New Dimension in Creative Storytelling

Flip Story lets you add a hidden twist to your stories! 🕵️‍♀️ When you post, viewers can reveal a second side by pressing and holding the “Hold to Flip” button. So, the main side is visible to everyone, while the secret side stays hidden until your audience takes action. How fun is that? 🙌


How Does It Work?


Creating a Flip Story is super easy! Just follow these simple steps:


  1. Access the Create Page: Tap the "+" button to open the Create page and toggle to Story, or hit the "+" button on your Profile photo.

  2. Select Flip Story: You’ll see the option to add a Flip Story, which means you'll need to upload two sides for your Story!

  3. Upload Images: Snap new photos right from the Create page or upload images from your device. Just a heads up—Flip Stories only support image uploads, so no videos for now!

  4. Enhance Your Story: Make your Flip Story stand out by adding text, filters, and other fun elements before you hit share! 🎨✨


Once you post it, your viewers can press the "Hold to Flip" button on the first side to reveal the hidden content, which will play for a few seconds. You’ll even get a separate list of viewers who unveiled the second side! 


Plus, all content shared in Flip Stories goes through the same moderation process as other TikTok Stories, keeping everything safe and fun.


Let’s get flipping! 🚀
