How to Find Trending TikTok Songs

There are many ways to find trending TikTok songs and sounds, but the main methods I use are:

• TikTok Creative Center: You can find trending songs, hashtags, creators, and videos by visiting the app’s Creative Center.
• Search other apps: Other video platforms like Instagram (Reels) or YouTube (Shorts) often share trends with TikTok, so check them if you’re looking for trending songs and sounds.
