I saw the tiktok icon in the w2g search bar, but when i tried it it doesn’t sync up, doesn’t have way to control the video and also the format it’s not too practic.

Is it intended or it’s a bug?

Tested in OperaGX with the addon

Hey, yes you are right. Tiktok support is quite limited at the moment due to a lack of an API to control the player. It might still make sense to watch Tiktoks together since they are usually quite short and do not necessarily require a tight sync.
