TikToks posts without mobile notifications.

Before starting, I would like to point out that you can connect both TikTok personal and business profiles to Planly. However, there are some differences between the two of them.
How can I connect TikTook to Planly?
There are 2 different methods to connect TikTok to Planly: Business and Standard. With the Business method, you can only connect TikTok business account.
While with the Standard method, you can connect both personal and business profiles to Planly. The differences do not stop here.
The additional differences lie in the TikTok analytics. You can access TikTok analytics data only in the Business method. The Standard method does not provide TikTok analytics metrics. With the Standard method, even if you connect a business account, you will not be able to see the analytics of your posts, audience, and overall page.

Note: When you remove a social channel, the media files you used to schedule to that TikTok account will remain in the team. Media files belong to a team, not a social channel.
