Videos can be between 30 sec to 3 minutes long
You can pre record videos on your own mobile device, then upload these videos. Multiple videos and images can be uploaded at once. This will then generate into one full video.

Once you are happy with your result, you can publish to tiktok.
If you are concerned with the video been visible by public, you can adjust your privacy option to only allow your followers to view your Tiktoks.
