> TikTok surpassed Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat & YouTube in downloads last month<p>This is not very relevant. The comparison will make sense in 5 years from now. If after months and years TikTok still gets more downloads then it's a game changer. Otherwise to compare them makes no much sense without a lot of interpretation.<p>People do not install Facebook each day. They install it when they get a new phone. But a new app will be installed in all preexisting phones.<p>This happens all the time. One app goes up in the charts as it becomes a new thing. Then it goes out of fashion. And in the end, the number of uninstalls is greater than the number of installs. Then the app disappears from the charts. But Facebook, Instagram, Candy Crush, Clash of Clans, etc. are still there the next month.
