YouTube targets TikTok with new 15-second video test

Youtube is now experimenting with a new feature that will let you record 15-second videos. The idea is to record 15-second clips that will eventually merge into one video.

Similar to TikTok, users will be able to tap and hold the record button to capture a short clip and then tap it again to add subsequent clips, creating a multi-segment video

It is currently only an experiment and no date has been set for when the feature will be made available for users of the Google-owned video sharing service.

The experiments are available for Android and iOS but will only be available to a small number of YouTube users while the company gathers feedback.
