Popular video-sharing app TikTok has hit 1 billion monthly active users around the world, the company said Monday.

“TikTok has become a beloved part of life for people around the world because of the creativity and authenticity of our creators. Our global community is remarkable in its ability to reach millions of people, across generations,” the company said in an announcement.

The short-form video app has risen sharply in popularity in the last few years, spawning competing products from other platforms.

Facebook-owned Instagram launched its Reels features, YouTube has created Shorts, and Snapchat released Spotlight — each offering a similar feature to TikTok allowing users to create short videos.
