More engagement on TikTok while using App?

Hey guys serious question do you think tiktok gives you more engagement while you are on the app to keep you engaged? I’ve noticed I get tons of likes and follows while i have the app open. But If I close it for a hour and come back i have close to nothing.
This isnt always true and I can’t be sure because of limited testing but what do you guys think?

I’ve had one video slowly blow up over the course of a week and I haven’t noticed any differences between when I’m using or not using the app

I’ve had experience with both, where videos blow up while I’m using app, and while I put the phone in airplane mode. I think its just random, just like algorithm.
