Introduction
How to add text on top of TikTok video posts that you want to share? We’ll show you how to do this now then let’s get started.
Make a Video
The first step is having a TikTok video that lets you place the text in the background of it. Make sure that you leave enough space in the text so that the reader will be able to read it in full and point out that area or glaring with your eyes.
After recording a video, ensure you mark the check box in the bottom right corner at the bottom.
Add Text

Style Text
The text can be stylized by tapping a font from the menu. Click on any of the colored dots to change the color of your text.
