Race is on to take TikTok's vacant short-video crownπŸ‘‘πŸ‘‘πŸ‘‘

   Following the India-China border dispute, protests in India for goods manufactured in China have increased. As the demand for Chinese goods began to rise throughout the country, there were demands for banning processors in China from companies operating in China. Subsequently, 59 Chinese mobile processors, including tiktok and Helo, were banned in India.


There is fierce competition among domestic processors to take advantage of its market opportunities after the disappearance of tiktok. Particularly, processors including Sharechat are now heavily downloaded and used. TikTok users are in search of whether or not a good video app is available. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Instagram has introduced a new video processor. In this processor called Reels, users can post and share videos of up to 15 seconds.
  The processor was created to share these videos directly on the Instagram page. Ajit Mohan, Vice-President of India's Facebook division of Facebook India, the parent company of Instagram, said that the new processor has been introduced as demand for video processors is growing in India. It is noteworthy that the video processor was launched in India, followed by Brazil, Germany and France.
