TikTok has introduced a new feature called Bulletin Boards and it might end up solving one of the app’s biggest communication problems. Creators have always struggled with the randomness of the ‘For You Page’. Sometimes their followers see updates, sometimes they vanish into endless scrolling. With Bulletin Boards, creators finally get a place where important posts don’t have to fight trending videos or the algorithm. Updates land directly in a separate inbox section, which is something TikTok should’ve honestly done a long time ago.

TikTok’s New Bulletin Boards 

A Bulletin Board is basically a clean, straightforward announcement space. Creators can share short videos, quick notes or images and these updates appear in their own inbox tab instead of being mixed with regular messages. Nothing gets buried under notifications. Followers can react with emojis but can’t reply and that keeps the board from turning into another noisy comment section. This gave creators a quiet room where they can talk without shouting over everything else happening on the app.

How Creators Can Use the Feature

A creator gives the board a name, adds a short description and decides whether it should appear on their profile. TikTok also places a few rules on how boards work, just to keep things organized:

• Up to three bulletins per day
• Each post can have up to 1,000 characters
• A bulletin can be deleted for everyone only within the first three minutes
• The board can be paused or reopened anytime within 30 days

These limits aren’t there to restrict creators but they actually force them to post intentionally for things people really care about.

Eligibility and Key Requirements

TikTok isn’t opening this to everyone right away. For now, it’s only available to a small group of creators and the requirements are pretty straightforward:

• One must be 18 or older
• Need at least 50,000 followers
• You can only run one board per account

This slow rollout is intentional. TikTok wants to watch how creators actually use the feature before it floods the platform.

What This Update Means for Users

For followers, this feature is honestly refreshing. Instead of hunting for updates, they get a single space where important information stays put. Joining or leaving a board takes one tap, and muting it is even easier. Bulletins don’t get lost, don’t compete with trends and don’t interrupt the usual feed, they sit exactly where users expect them.

Conclusion

Bulletin Boards might not look flashy but they fix a real problem on TikTok. They give creators a stable way to reach people who actually follow them and they give users a cleaner place to keep track of what matters. As the feature expands, it may slowly become one of the most reliable tools on the app, not loud or showy, just genuinely useful.
