How do I put a video from my camera roll onto a stitch on TikTok?

To stitch on TikTok, find a video and tap the Share icon, then select Stitch.
Stitching lets you take part of someone else's TikTok video and use it in your own video.
Not all TikTok videos will have Stitch enabled, and you can choose whether to enable it for your own video.

TikTok is built on collaboration. Nearly every video uses music picked from a list, every day there's a new trend — that's not even mentioning the wildly popular Duet feature, which lets you virtually star in someone else's video.

Stitch is a creation tool that allows you to combine another video on TikTok with one you're creating. If you allow another person to Stitch with your video, they can use a part of your video as a part of their own video.
Keep in mind, you must have a public account to allow others to Stitch with your videos.

You can choose who can Stitch with your videos in your settings:
In your account privacy settings, you can choose who can Stitch with your videos:
• Everyone: If you choose Everyone and you have Stitch turned on, then anyone can Stitch with your video.
• Friends: If you choose Friends and you have Stitch turned on, then only your friends can Stitch with your video. Friends are people on TikTok who you follow and who follow you back.
You can also turn off Stitch on all your existing videos at one time in your privacy settings. This means you don't have go to each of your videos individually to turn off Stitch.

You can turn Stitch on or off for each of your videos:
You can turn Stitch off or on before you post a video, or for an existing video.
• If you turn Stitch on: The group you selected in the Stitch setting for all your videos can Stitch with this video. For example, if you chose to allow only your Friends to Stitch with all your videos, then if you turn on Stitch for a single video, only your Friends can Stitch with this video.
• If you turn Stitch off: Others can't Stitch with your video.

Things to know when you allow others to Stitch with your video:
•  That person's privacy settings will determine who can watch, comment on, download, or interact with the Stitched video.
•  The Stitched video will only appear on the profile of the person who recorded the Stitch. Your original video will only appear on your profile page.
•  If you allow others to Stitch with your videos but then change your settings to limit who can use your videos or delete your video, any existing Stitches that have already been made will remain on TikTok. If you have any questions or concerns, you can report the video.
