KAMPALA | LIFESTYLE UGANDA — TikTok rival, YouTube Shorts is expanding into Latin America, Canada, and the United Kingdom (UK). The platform recently launched its initial beta stage in India and expanded into the US in March.

Here is a complete list of the 25 regions/countries where the platform is now available, which also includes Brazil and Mexico. According to TechCrunch, the rollout begins this week and will be completed by the end of the month.

The TechCrunch blog also reports that Shorts users will soon be able to upload their short-form videos to the YouTube catalog.

The report notes that “this will not only include music from creators, but also videos that may already be viral or get their 15 minutes of fame through one great short.”

Last month, YouTube announced that New York-based independent digital music distribution platform TuneCore and its Paris-based parent company Believe had partnered with the video streaming site to provide music for Shorts.
