TikTok makes searching easier than ever before.

TikTok's search widget is TV Series Archivesnow available for iPhone users, giving you a shortcut to its search. So, instead of opening the app and then clicking the search button, when you tap the widget you're automatically brought to TikTok's search screen. It saves you 5 seconds max but suggests that the platform is doubling down on its status as a search engine. Members of Gen Z told Mashable they use TikTok to find recipes, travel recommendations, and workouts.

SEE ALSO: For Gen Z, TikTok is more than entertainment. It's a search engine.

TikTok hinted at its desire to be recognized as a search engine with an ad ran in the UK earlier this year that featured the slogan, "Search it with TikTok." And now with its quiet rollout, TikTok is directly competing with Google's own search widget.
