TikTok, the music-video-sharing mobile app owned by China’s ByteDance Inc, unveiled new tools to let third-party developers integrate their content onto its platform, seeking to deepen ties in the US even as it faces growing scrutiny from lawmakers over data security.

The new features will let TikTok users edit videos in other apps, such as Adobe Inc’s Premiere Rush, and publish them directly on TikTok, helping users create new original content. In addition to Adobe, TikTok is also teaming up with augmented-reality company Fuse.it, photo- and video-editing program PicsArt, image-animating app Plotaverse and other outside app developers.
