TikTok is launching its own version of community notes on the platform, called “Footnotes.”
The crowd-sourced approach to moderation, where users add additional context to posts, has become increasingly popular on social media networks after X (then called Twitter) first launched it in 2021.
“Footnotes offers a new opportunity for people to share their expertise and add an additional layer of context to the discussion using a consensus-driven approach,” the company wrote in a blog post.

TikTok said it will open access to start contributing to Footnotes in the coming months. U.S. users can apply to be a contributor as of today. They’ll have to meet the eligibility requirements of having been on the platform for more than 6 months, are at least 18 years old, and have no recent history of violating TikTok’s community guidelines.
