The 'Seen' app is a complementary digital tool for consumers to use as a way to further connect with their friends and followers around [TikTok](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lemon8) content and other digital entertainment.

The app works by recording a live reaction of the user as they watch content sent to them, which can then be sent privately through iMessage or in [group chats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/real-time-social-chats) with up to 11 people. The app requires users to record a video of themselves upon having content sent to them to prioritize an engaging experience on both ends of the conversation. The app will then record a reaction of the reaction of the sender for an authentic, engaging way to connect with friends remotely.

The 'Seen' app can be shared directly fro TikTok to prioritize a sharing-friendly experience.
