TikTok
 
I don't own a smartphone, I'm still thinking about it but don't want to rush it in case they are a passing fad :D

I've noticed the increasing use of TikTok the video sharing app which is Chinese owned (by ByteDance). There are 800 million TikTok users and it is the top downloaded app on the Apple store. If you are using it and are not concerned about your personal data then there isn't a problem, if you are concerned read this:

They also censor anti-Chinese sentiments.

Original Reddit post contains a bit more info and links to other analysis of the app.

TLDR: Don't use TikTok. Don't allow anyone with it installed to connect to your home network.
