TikTok: learn the trick so your friends and family can’t find your videos

If you created a TikTok account and don’t want your acquaintances to find your videos, feel free to use this trick.

It is not a secret that TikTok is one of the most famous entertainment applications today. Not only young people are attracted to this platform of Chinese origin, but there are also adults and third-party people who use it, to the point that many have gained millions of followers thanks to its content. Have you already created an account?

If the answer is positive, you will surely have noticed that TikTok usually recommends adding your friends, family, co-workers, among other people you know. Although most have no problem accepting them, there are users who prefer to remain anonymous and that their content is not recommended to people in their circle.

In case you have created an account and are uploading a lot of content that you prefer to remain hidden from your acquaintances, you will be happy to know that there is a trick so that your friends, family or anyone close to you cannot find you. You just have to follow these simple steps:

First, you will need to enter your TikTok profile .
Tap the three-line icon in the upper right corner.
Countless options will appear, you have to choose Privacy .
Now look for the section called ‘ Recommend your account to others ‘.
Finally, deactivate the Facebook Contacts and friends options

That would be all. The people you have added to your phone’s address book will never know that you have a TikTok account , nor will the Facebook users you added to your friends list.
