Assim como ocorre com a sua Conta Apple (Apple Account), o TikTok também disponibiliza uma configuração que permite adicionar um contato herdeiro ao seu perfil após o seu falecimento.

No caso da rede social de vídeos, isso vai ainda além: é possível fazer com que a conta seja completamente excluída após o ocorrido.

Veja como configurar isso nos passos a seguir!

1. Acesse o TikTok no seu iPhone/iPad;
2. Toque na aba “Perfil”, na parte inferior direita;
3. Vá até os três risquinhos (no canto superior direito);
4. Selecione “Configurações e privacidade”;

5. Escolha “Conta”;
6. Toque em “Herança da conta”;
7. Escolha entre “Adicionar um contato herdeiro” ou “Excluir após o falecimento” e siga os passos seguintes.

Além de servir como uma rede social com conteúdos para passar o tempo, o TikTok também possui um grande número de criadores de conteúdo focados em publicações de cunho educacional.

Para incentivar e expandir o acesso a esses posts, a rede social permite ativar o chamado Feed STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, ou Ciência, Tecnologia, Engenharia e Matemática).

Apesar de já vir ativado para usuários entre 13 e 17 anos, todos podem ativar o filtro STEM manualmente. Veja como! 😄

1. Com o app do TikTok aberto, toque na aba “Perfil”;
2. Toque nos três risquinhos (no canto superior direito);
3. Vá até “Configurações e privacidade”;
4. Escolha “Preferências de conteúdo”;
5. Toque em “Feed STEM”;
6. Selecione “Ativar”.

Volte à tela inicial do TikTok e deslize o dedo da esquerda para a direita (na parte superior) para escolher “STEM”.

Opcionalmente, também é possível ativar as legendas.

O AirPlay é a maneira mais fácil de transmitir conteúdos de um iPhone, iPad ou Mac para smart TVs compatíveis ou Apple TVs — sejam eles vídeos ou músicas.

Indo mais além dos aplicativos nativos da Apple que permitem isso, há os apps de terceiros que também podem suportar a tecnologia. Um deles é o TikTok, rede social de vídeos curtos. A partir de qualquer post, basta alguns toques para transmitir os conteúdos da rede no aparelho compatível.

Veja como! 📺

Antes de mais nada, certifique-se de que o TikTok possui acesso à rede local. Para isso, abra os Ajustes (Settings), toque em “Apps” e em “TikTok”. Depois, marque a chave ao lado de “Rede Local”.

Abra então o TikTok e localize a postagem que deseja enviar. Mantenha o dedo pressionado por alguns segundos em cima dela, role pela lista e toque em “Transmitir”.

Por fim, basta selecionar o dispositivo desejado.

Se você costuma trocar mensagens e/ou vídeos com os seus seguidores no TikTok, sabe o quão útil e divertido pode ser isso.

Para personalizar ainda mais esses chats, é possível alterar os sons de alerta de um contato específico (ao todo, são oito opções de toques diferentes).

Veja como é supersimples alterar isso! 💬

1. Com o app do TikTok aberto, toque em “Mensagens”, na barra inferior.
2. Selecione o contato desejado para abrir a conversa.
3. Vá até o botão com três pontinhos (no canto superior direito).

4. Escolha “Sons de alerta” e toque em uma das opções para escutá-la e selecioná-la.

Longtime Slashdot reader DF5JT writes: On July 26, I posted a single announcement in r/backgammon: GNU Backgammon for Android, GPLv3, the first standalone backgammon engine on F-Droid. Reddit's spam filter removed the post and permanently banned my 11-year, 30,000-karma account -- the result is publicly visible at reddit.com/user/OE1FEU. To this day, Reddit has given no reason whatsoever, although Article 17 of the EU's Digital Services Act makes a statement of reasons mandatory. The only appeal channel is a 250-character web form that sends no confirmation and has never been answered; Reddit's own help text admits: "you may not have received a message to your inbox." A GDPR export of 11 years of data came to 7.2 MB; every post was truncated after a few lines, with zero data about the ban decision. So I spent one day escalating through every mechanism the EU provides: certified out-of-court dispute settlement at Austria's RTR, complaints with the Austrian and Dutch Digital Services Coordinators, the data protection authority (citing the ECJ's SCHUFA ruling on automated decisions), noyb, and Austria's consumer association. Bonus finding: the European Commission's DSA Transparency Database contains 14,067 Reddit statements of reasons for that week -- none for my ban -- and the Commission's own feedback form limits reports to 500 characters and crashed with a 500 Server Error. Is the DSA enforceable for ordinary users, or just paperwork?
