TikTok users are loving the red flag filter which is supposed to tell you what your most problematic behaviors are. Here’s how you can try the effect out for yourself.
Many of TikTok‘s biggest trends are inspired by the huge number of filters and effects that are available on the app, with new ones being added on a constant basis.
These effects often end up prompting viral trends which take over the social media platform and get thousands of people to participate.
One filter that’s been gaining traction on TikTok recently is the ‘My red flag’ filter, which claims to randomly assigns three of your biggest ‘red flags’ – characteristics or habits that might be perceived negatively in personal or professional relationships.
The filter is not intended for serious personality analysis, and the results are often comical and shared for amusement, although some users claim it’s fairly accurate. Here’s how you can try it out for yourself.
