What Does IB Mean On TikTok? | Metro News

TikTok – when it’s not making you question the thought process behind teens pretending to be holocaust victims – is a fun way to lose an hour (or more) of your day.

However, using the app – which is full of short video clips – means you not only have to keep up with the latest dance trends, but you also need to keep up with the latest lingo – like what it means to be a Heather.

So, what does it mean when a user uses the hashtag IB?

TikTok: What does IB mean?

Like most things in life, there isn’t one clear answer as to what the letters IB mean when they’re tagged on a video.

However, the two most likely answers depend on where the TikTok user lives.

The most likely answer as to what IB means is ‘inspired by.’

‘#IB’ will be added to a video when perhaps a user is recreating a challenge, dance or something else they have seen someone else do, and they want to credit where their inspiration is coming from.

Popular TikTok user Addison Rae, for example, used IB in a video where she is crediting where she first saw the video she is recreating.

However, there is a second possible meaning behind IB, and this depends on who is using it, and the context.

For many, IB is an acronym for the type of exams they take – International Baccalaureate.

The International Baccalaureate is a non-profit foundation headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, and founded in 1968.
