Bandung, Indonesia Sentinel — Indonesia has officially become the country with the most TikTok users in the world, surpassing the United States. According to data from Statista in August 2024, Indonesia now ranks first with 157.6 million users, while the U.S. comes in second with 120.5 million users.

Other countries rounding out the top five include Brazil (105.2 million), Mexico (77.54 million), and Vietnam (65.64 million).

This significant increase in TikTok users is attributed to the rapid growth of digital trends in Indonesia, particularly among the younger generation. TikTok, known for its short-form video content, has become an integral part of daily life for internet users across the country.
