What is Stitch?

A Stitch is a TikTok feature that lets you clip a few seconds of someone else's video and add your own video after it as a response.

Stitches let you join existing conversations instead of starting from scratch. You can answer a question, react to a trend or add your expert opinion to a popular video. Because the original clip is included, your video can benefit from interest in the original topic.

On TikTok, you pick a public video, choose the clip you want to use and then record your part after it. The original creator is credited automatically. Creators can turn Stitch off for their videos, so it is not always available. Other networks have similar response features, such as YouTube's remix options.

Look for questions or myths in your field that you can answer helpfully. Keep the clip short and get to your point fast. Stay respectful, especially when disagreeing. Stitch your own popular videos to create follow-ups and series.

Example

A local mechanic stitches viral car maintenance myths and explains in a few seconds what drivers should really do.
