Note: Engaged View has been renamed to Focused View.
Focused View is an upgrade of the Video View objective on TikTok, which allows advertisers to optimize both video views and positive interactions.
The Focused View objective will deliver ads to users who are most likely to actively engage with an ad — by viewing it for at least 6 seconds OR by interacting with the video within the first 6 seconds (whichever comes first). This allows us to optimize for two different kinds of engagement:
Views: We target users who are most likely to view your ad for at least six seconds.
Positive Interactions: We target users who are more likely to actively engage with an ad.
Positive interactions to be considered: Like, Follow, Share, Click, Hashtag Clicks, Music clicks, Anchor Clicks, and Interactive Add-on Activity Clicks. For more details, refer to All metrics.
What's changing?
New campaigns: All new ad groups with the 6-second Views objective (6s) will automatically be based on Focused View Optimization.
Existing ad groups will continue using the previous 6s Video View optimization until they conclude the campaign.
Features and Benefits
Focused View offers a way for advertisers to drive brand impact by leveraging TikTok's engagement-building capabilities and ensuring their ads are shown to users who are truly paying attention.
Voluntary Attention: TikTok users watch ads voluntarily for a longer time and are actively engaging with them.
Immersive Engagement: Focused views place video ads between user-generated content in the FYP, creating the full-screen, auto-play, sound-on, immersive environment with maximum engagement.
