TikTok Video Upload - Is TikTok Uploading Throttled?

I run social media campaigns from my phone and am often uploading content to a variety of platforms. For example, I will create a 60-second short vertical video promoting a local business and then load that exact same video onto TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook.

The posts to Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube go through quickly and efficiently. The exact same video then posting to TikTok can take 30 minutes to an hour or more.  It is that slow even if I fully reboot my phone and only load TikTok. I am on a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra. In talking with other users, I don't get a sense that it's a problem with the TikTok app. 

Is Verizon handling TikTok traffic differently than it's handling the traffic to Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube?

It sounds frustrating that uploading to TikTok is taking so long. It's unlikely that Verizon is handling TikTok traffic differently from other platforms. The issue might be related to TikTok's servers or the app's optimization for your device. You can try clearing the cache for the TikTok app, ensuring your app is up to date, or contacting TikTok support for further assistance.
